Spanning a time period from the era of Conquest and Discovery to late in the twentieth century, this study examines eight Mexican texts that share attributes of the picaresque branch of the family of literature. The book highlights variations in context, narrative technique, style, humor, setting, characterization, and focus. Previously unstudied texts such as El Chanfalla and Don Catrin de la Fachenda as well as Mexican classics El Periquillo Sarniento and La vida inutil de Pito Perez are examined.
