I am reading a book in Spanish, "La Fiesta Del Chivo", and there is a line that uses the word avispeo:

Cuando servían el café, de pronto, por encima del avispeo de las conversaciones que ......

When looking this word up, I can't find its meaning. Does anyone know what avispeo means?

In that context avispeo means murmur; low sound caused by people talking/chating around. Just imagine that brsbrsbrsbrs.. it's like wasps. (wasp = avispa).

I could be wrong but I think it is misspelled and should be avispeRo which is a wasp's nest.
