Summary "L'hostal de la Bolla: Costums i llenguatge vulgar de Mallorca" by Miquel dels Sants Oliver is a literary work written in the early 20th century. This narrative captures the everyday life in Mallorca, particularly through the experiences of the barber Armando, who navigates between his unfulfilled aspirations and the vibrant local culture. The book explores themes of ambition, identity, and community within a setting rich in character and local color. The opening portion of the text introduces Armando, a barber characterized by his artistic sensibilities and dissatisfaction with his mundane profession. As he opens his barber shop and reflects on his past ambitions of becoming a musician, the narrative begins to weave in memories of the bustling environment surrounding the "Hostal de la Bolla." The description of local patrons and the vibrant cultural scene sets the stage for a richly textured exploration of life in Mallorca. The reader is invited to engage with the dynamics of the community and the characters that inhabit it, suggesting a blend of humor, nostalgia, and keen observations of social interactions.
