Publicada en 1902, Cañas y barro es sin duda una de las novelas donde el vigor expresivo de Vicente Blasco Ibáñez (1867-1928) alcanza una de sus cotas más altas. Situada en el agreste escenario de la Albufera valenciana, que parece prestar a la obra su poderosa violencia, la obra narra la declinación del humilde clan de los Palomas, encarnada en la figura trágica de su último vástago, Tonet -individuo abúlico y de débil personalidad-. En el conflicto generacional entre abuelo y padre por una parte, esforzados extractores de los magros recursos que ofrece una naturaleza salvaje, y el hijo que rehúye una tradición de trabajo a cambio de una existencia especulativa, se puede advertir un trasunto de las tensiones que latÃan en una España convulsionada entre dos siglos.
