Book description
Silvio Astier, inteligente y de opiniones agudas, vive en un entorno marginal. Expulsado del colegio y humillado por la pobreza, intenta escapar de esta realidad a toda costa, iniciándose en la vida adulta, primero como ladrón y luego en distintos trabajos. En su intento por encauzar su vida, Silvio vivirá distintas experiencias absurdas y conocerá diversos personajes siniestros y ruines, que le mostrarán una realidad hostil. Obra fundamental de la literatura latinoamericana, El juguete rabioso es la primera novela del escritor argentino Roberto Arlt. Con tintes autobiográficos, esta novela narra en primera persona, de manera directa y cruda, las problemáticas sociales y económicas de la Argentina de comienzos de siglo XX. Marginalidad, incertidumbre, sueños frustrados y violencia son parte de la vida de Silvio, quien, en su lucha por progresar, debe optar entre la honestidad y el delito. Publicada en 1926, El juguete rabioso ha sido llevada al cine en dos ocasiones por José María Paolantonio y Aníbal Di Salvo en 1984 y por Javier Torre en 1998.Roberto Arlt (Buenos Aires, 1900-1942) fue un escritor, dramaturgo, periodista e inventor argentino. Ha sido definido como el escritor que inauguró la novela moderna argentina, por su estilo directo y "descuidado". Autodidacta y exponente del Grupo de Boedo, publicó reconocidas obras como El juguete rabioso (1926), Los siete locos (1929), Los lanzallamas (1931) y El amor brujo (1932), además de varios libros de cuentos, aguafuertes y obras de teatro.
