   Also found in: Encyclopedia 0.01 sec.

Miró, Gabriel (1879–1930)

Spanish novelist. He produced numerous novels, including Las cerezas del cementerio/The Cherries of the Graveyard 1910, El abuelo del rey/The King's Grandfather 1917, and El humo dormido/The Sleeping Smoke 1919, all manifesting an immense sensitivity to natural beauty. His two later novels about ‘Oleza’ (the town of Orihuela), Nuestro Padre San Daniel/Our Father Saint Daniel 1921 and El obispo leproso/The Leprous Bishop 1925, have slowly gained recognition as among the finest and most complex works in modern Spanish literature.

He was born in Alicante and led a poverty-stricken life as a journalist and civil servant.
