About this product

Product Information

Un clasico de la literatura mexicana del siglo XX, que es a su vez una audaz exploracion de las posibilidades de representacion en la literatura, a traves de la superposicion de niveles de tiempo, espacio y consciencia narrativos. Las revoluciones las hacen los hombres de carne y hueso y no los santos, y todas acaban por crear una nueva casta privilegiada... En su lecho de muerte, durante su ultimo medio dia, el anciano y enfermo Artemio Cruz recuerda: no siempre fue ese triste saco de huesos y fermentos corporales; alguna vez fue joven, osado, vigoroso. Y tuvo ideales, suenos, fe. Para defender todo eso, incluso combatio en una revolucion. Mas la rapina, la codicia y la corrupcion extinguieron su fuego y aniquilaron su esperanza. Tal vez por ello perdio a la unica mujer que de verdad lo amo. Una reflexion sobre el Mexico surgido de la Revolucion Mexicana, pero tambien de cuestiones tan universales y permanentes como la soledad, el poder o el desamor. La critica ha dicho... Excepcional, tanto en su forma de abarcar todo el espectro humano como en la satira corrosiva y el dialogo mordaz. -The New York Times Book Review Carlos Fuentes organizo esta novela en trece capitulos. En esas escalas, como si fuera un trio de jazz, leemos -escuchamos- un ensamble a contratiempo que va y viene por la mente de un moribundo. Con esa estructura no convencional, la historia fluye -por distintas fugas- a traves de seis decadas del siglo XX mexicano. Desde el rural novecento y hasta la mas cosmopolita decada de los anos sesenta, vemos a Artemio Cruz exhibiendo a un tipo que va en un ascenso publico constante, pero con una historia interna desintegrada. -Antonio Valle, La Jornada ENGLISH DESCRIPTION In La muerte de Artemio Cruz we are present in the last moments of the life of a powerful man, one who was a revolutionary soldier, a lover without passion, and a father without a family. Carlos Fuentes reveals in this novel the thoughts of an elderly man who can no longer fend for himself; the man is confronted with an imminent and torturous death, but his will does not allow him to be defeated.
