Spanish Writer, Novelist of Generation of '98, Valencia Graduate
: Spanish writer from the generation of '98 . Baroja, who received his doctorate in medicine, ended up abandoning that profession in favor of literature, an activity in which he cultivated the novel and, to a much lesser extent, the theater. In his work, in which he often betrays a pessimistic attitude, he reflected his individualism. (From: Wikipedia.org.)

“Lying is one of man's most vital possessions. By lying, societies live with their soldiers and their priests -- one group as useless as the other.”
