La ley de Herodes y otros cuentos.

The satire in 'La ley de Herodes' feels both sharp and darkly funny. I'm curious how Ibargüengoitia envisioned balancing comedy with serious critique.

The story’s humor highlights the absurdity of authority, but it also made me wonder how much of this satire reflects real historical events or is purely fictional.

The exaggerated characters and situations make the political commentary stand out, but does this approach make readers think more critically about real-world issues?
