A gripping blend of language learning and noir intrigue, this edition of Emilia Pardo Bazán’s Spanish Detective: A Drop of Blood offers a unique approach to mastering Spanish through literature.
The story follows Selva, a wealthy and noble man accustomed to the refined but jaded circles of Madrid’s high society. His life of predictable pleasures is shattered when he becomes the prime suspect in a cunning and brutal murder. As a pioneering work from one of the founders of the detective genre in Spanish literature, this novella immerses readers in a classic whodunit.
This volume is adapted using Ilya Frank’s method, which provides a word-for-word Russian translation and essential lexical-grammatical commentary directly alongside the original Spanish text—without simplifying the original. The method’s strength lies in natural repetition: readers absorb vocabulary and grammar through context, bypassing rote memorization or constant dictionary use. This approach helps learners intuitively grasp the logic and “feel” of the Spanish language.
Designed for a broad audience of Spanish learners and those interested in Spanish culture, the preparation by Daria Ustinova ensures the text remains accessible while preserving its literary integrity. Price: 707.00 RUR.
