Marta Sanz’s  Susana y los Viejos  (2006) uses the well-known Biblical story as intertextual motif to draw attention to gender double standards within the Spanish context. This article examines the representation of ageing and older men  vis-á-vis  gender politics and the politics of care for the old. Focusing on the novel’s specific engagement with ‘dirty realism’ (stética  feísta ) and the caricatured portrait of social and personal interactions, the analysis will attempt to weave together the meanings that run through a narrative laden with intertextual and paratextual references.
