Más información sobre el libro

Exploring the dehumanizing nature of societal roles, the narrative delves into the life of a plongeur, likening him to a slave performing menial tasks out of fear of his potential danger if given freedom. The text critiques the perception of beggars as fundamentally different from working men, highlighting society's tendency to view them as outcasts and parasites. This examination reveals the underlying prejudices and misconceptions that contribute to the marginalization of those who do not conform to traditional notions of work and value.
