picara

Picara molinera.

La picara molinera.

It strikes a blow for the picara by putting a heroine through the same paces that once animated a Tom Jones or a Holden Caulfield.

In the novel the old picaresque tradition is revived: there is one central character, Bella, the picara, who is the only link to all the other characters.

This part was followed by many others on shows such as Simplemente Maria, Mi Pequeña Soledad and La Picara Soñadora.

The first soaps (Picara Sonhadora and Marisol) did fairly well in the ratings; however, later soaps (Cristal, Os Ricos Também Choram and Maria Esperança, a version of the popular Maria Mercedes) were less popular.
