Juan Ramón Jiménez

Platero Y Yo Juan Ramón Jiménez

From its first publication in 1917, Juan Ramón Jiménez turned his Silversmith - the donkey that walked the poet in the afternoons of Moguer - into a legendary figure as popular as Alicia or the Little Prince. With an exquisite and at the same time simple language, full of beautiful images and full of melancholy, the poet, sometimes in dialogue with Platero and others in his company, tells us about the beauty of the environment and its relationship with all things. Without a doubt, Platero has dazzled generations of readers.
