Esta es una de las principales novelas de Camilo José Cela. En palabras de Paul Llie, 'es novela de la tierra, de su gran permanencia entre agitación y muerte, y fuente de genuina fertilidad frente a la superpuesta y decadente civilización', y su significado remite a que 'lo espontáneo de la vida es lo más valioso'. Novela del llano y de la selva, subyugante incursión en el habla, la cotidianidad y el trasfondo mítico de las tierras venezolanas. La catira es un ejemplo acabado de la maestría de un gran escritor.
