The prologue establishes that the narrator’s primary aim in telling his story is to expose the truth, however ugly.

By noting that some readers may find the text disagreeable, the narrator is foreshadowing the book’s heretical content, such as negative depictions of clergymen, for which it was banned after its initial publication in Spain.
