This book is for those who want to read the original classic legend of Maese Pérez el Organista but need a bit of help. It is presented with a choice of reading options. For those with a good understanding of the Spanish language, the full and original legend is included and could be read first with occasional reference to the English translation as necessary. If you find Bécquer's original language a little too challenging, we suggest that you read the English translation first to refresh your memory of this fabulous legend and then give it another go. Alternatively, if more help is required, the parallel text section allows easy comparison of the original Spanish text to an accurate translation - Spanish followed by English. Excepting the editor's comments, the translation by Rollo Ogden is true to the legend by accurately translating the Spanish with a good choice of words that maintain the flow of the tale and evoke like feelings. We hope you enjoy reading Maese Pérez el Organista and by doing so improve your knowledge of the Spanish language.
