Published in 1921, "Belarmino y Apolonio" probably is the best novel written by the Spanish Asturias-born writer Ramon Perez de Ayala, and certainly a most significant one among those published during the so-called Spanish culture Silver Age (1898-1936). According to the French hispanist critic Jean Cassou "Belarmino y Apolonio" should be considered one of the most important novels in Spanish literature, second only to "El Quijote." The novel appears at first sight to be a story that could be classified as "costumbrismo" or even romantic pulp fiction: the forbidden love between a young seminarist and a beautiful girl, son and daughter respectively of two shoemakers who happen to hate each other. But in truth the work constitutes a singular mechanism of mirrors and retelling, and a continuous pondering upon human behavior, up to the point that the reader soon realizes that one of the cobblers is a philosopher who happens to have invented a new language, and the other one considers himself to be a playwright and normally speaks in verse. With this novel Perez de Ayala presents a fictional research on the point of view, the contrast and, finally, the relativeness and contingency of human opinion, and how do these affect the precious good called "happiness," in a text that combines cultural references and an essay-like style with a precise narrative structure, all encompassed in a playful and ironic tone of voice.

La emigracion canaria a Cuba fue cuantiosa y sostenida, tanto que puede considerarse una de sus principales raices culturales y etnograficas. Hoy no es raro el canario que tiene familiares en Cuba, y menos raro el cubano que lleva un apellido guanche. Porque los descendientes de aquellos emigrantes canarios poco tardaron en considerarse cubanos de pura cepa. En lugar de llegar como colonos o soldados, los islenos, como se los conoce en Cuba, lo hicieron como mano de obra para las plantaciones de tabaco y de cana de azucar. Los pobladores de Cuba de origen canario llevaron tambien consigo sus devociones tradicionales. Es interesante el detalle de que los canarios se asentaban preferentemente en las zonas rurales y no en las zonas urbanas donde predominaba la emigracion peninsular, de aqui se desprende que las influencias economicas y socioculturales canarias se vean mas en las zonas rurales y en la cultura campesina en Cuba. En la parte central de la Isla, donde la presencia de rios es caracteristica, estos labriegos, fomentaron en pequenas parcelas o vegas naturales a la vera de los rios, la siembra de la planta de tabaco, de ahi el apelativo de vegueros 'islenos' a los canarios."
