Miguel Ángel Asturias Volgorde van de boeken (chronologisch)

Set in the mountain forests of Guatemala, the story follows a community of Indigenous Mayans, the 'men of maize,' who fiercely defend their sacred corn crops from encroaching outsiders. This conflict escalates into a bloody struggle to preserve their culture and land. Blending history with mythology, Miguel Ángel Asturias's evocative narrative serves as a poignant warning about the dangers of losing ancestral wisdom and the environmental devastation driven by colonialism and capitalism.

"First English-language edition of El espejo de Lida Sal (see HLAS 30:3268), in which the Nobel laureate melds Mayan and Guatemalan myth and folklore in 10 stories whose hallucinatory prose challenges the reader. 'Everything unfolds in a land of natural dreamscapes ... The imagination reels.' Although lacking a table of contents and translator's note, the superb translation recommends the work for classroom use"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58
