Publisher's Summary

La gran novela urbana de Camilo José Cela.

En el Madrid de los años inmediatamente posteriores a la Guerra Civil, los destinos de numerosos individuos de varias clases sociales y con diferentes actitudes ante la vida desfilan en una secuencia de breves y fascinantes viñetas narrativas. Con la ciudad como personaje, el conjunto es el retrato de una sociedad en la que el estraperlo, el hambre, la prostitución y el miedo conviven con efímeros destellos de ternura y humor.

Publicada en 1951 en Buenos Aires debido a los problemas con la censura, La colmena, una de las obras maestras de Cela, constituye un hito fundamental de la narrativa española, que contribuyó a renovar de manera decisiva.
