Rebellious, skeptical, caustic, irritable... and always preparing himself for the worst. That’s Piquito de Oro. He is in his early thirties, does not work, does not study and has no problem with being supported by Josefina, his 52-year-old wife. Josefina, “a philosopher like Beauvoir but more fleshy and Latina” allows him to live a life of leisure, and he spends his time ranting about it all. Piquito’s voice is one of the most original voices in Argentinian literature.
