BESTSELLER
"One of the best novels in
Hispanic literature, and in literature as a whole.” —Jorge Luis
Borges
The highly influential masterpiece
of Latin American literature, now published in a new, authoritative translation,
and featuring a foreword by Gabriel García
Márquez
A masterpiece
of the surreal that influenced a generation of writers in Latin America,
Pedro Páramo is the otherworldly tale of one man’s quest for
his lost father. That man swears to his dying mother that he will find the
father he has never met—Pedro Páramo—but when he reaches the town of Comala, he
finds it haunted by memories and hallucinations. There emerges the tragic tale
of Páramo himself, and the town whose every corner holds the taint of his rotten
soul. Although initially published to a quiet reception, Pedro
Páramo was soon recognized as a major novel that has served as a
touchstone text for writers including Mario Vargas Llosa and José Donoso. Now
published in a new translation from the definitive Spanish edition by
celebrated Rulfo scholar Douglas J. Weatherford, and featuring a foreword by
Gabriel García Márquez, this new edition of the novel cements its place as one
of the seminal literary texts of the twentieth century.
