Summary "Pago Chico" by Roberto Jorge Payró is a novel written in the early 20th century. It presents a detailed portrayal of life in a small Argentine town, focusing on the political intrigues and social dynamics among its residents. The novel features characters such as the ambitious Don Ignacio and journalist Pedro Viera, who become embroiled in the struggles for power and influence in their community. At the start of the novel, the setting is established in the town of Pago Chico, a landscape shaped by political manipulation and societal disputes. The opening describes the fort and its development into a town populated by a diverse and often fractious community composed of soldiers' families, indigenous people, and traders. As rival factions begin to coalesce, we meet several key figures, including Don Ignacio, who leads the opposition against the corrupt authorities, and Viera, who is determined to expose the injustices through his newspaper, "La Pampa." The stage is set for a tale rich with conflict, ambition, and the quest for justice in a politically charged atmosphere. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
