Acid rain bathes Makesicko City, the world's most populated and polluted city. The government's control and manipulation mechanisms are ruthless. Festivities and contests keep the masses under their spell. To win one of these contests a couple must give birth to their child on October 12, within the first minute of the day.

Download or read book Cristobal Nonato / Christopher Unborn written by Carlos Fuentes and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2016-11-29 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cristóbal Nonato se desarrolla en el México de 1992, cuando se han cumplido todas las predicciones catastrofistas que pesaban sobre el país, y la manipulación mantiene a las masas enajenada en toda suerte de festejos y concursos. Una lluvia ácida cae sobre Makesicko City, la urbe más poblada y más contaminada. Los mecanismos de control político son implacables y la manipulación mantiene a las masas enajenadas en festejos y concursos, uno de ellos, el premio a la pareja cuyo hijo nazca en el primer minuto del 12 de octubre. En el vientre de su madre, donde cavila y desde donde percibe los fragores del mundo, Cristóbal se pregunta:¿vale la pena nacer? ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Conceived exactly nine months before the five-hundredth anniversary of Columbus's discovery of the New World, the narrator of Christopher Unborn spends the novel waiting to be born. But what kind of world will he be delivered into? "Makesicko City," as the punning narrator calls it, is not doing well in this alternate, worst-case-scenario 1992. Politicians are selling pieces of their country to the United States. A black, acid rain falls relentlessly, forewarning of the even worse ecological catastrophes to come. Gangs of children, confined to the slums, terrorize their wealthy neighbors. A great novel of ideas and a work of aesthetic boldness, Christopher Unborn is a unique, and quite funny, work from one of the twentieth century's most respected authors.

Book Synopsis The Good Conscience by : Carlos Fuentes
Download or read book The Good Conscience written by Carlos Fuentes and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Good Conscience" is Carlos Fuentes's second novel. The scene is Guanajuato, a provincial capital in Central Mexico, once one of the world's richest mining centers. The Ceballos family has been reinstated to power, and adolescent Jaime Ceballos, its only heir, is torn between the practical reality of his family's life and the idealism of his youth and his Catholic education. His father is a good man but weak; his uncle is powerful, yet his actions are inconsistent with his professed beliefs. Jaime's struggle to emerge as a man with a "good conscience" forms the theme of the book: can a rebel correct the evils of an established system and at the same time retain the integrity of his principles?
Book Synopsis Los años con Laura Diaz / The Years with Laura Diaz by : Carlos Fuentes
Download or read book Los años con Laura Diaz / The Years with Laura Diaz written by Carlos Fuentes and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2016-09-27 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A través de la vida íntima de una mujer y sus pasiones, esta novela narra una saga familiar entre mezclada con la historia cultural y política de un país convulso donde todo parece estar gestándose simultáneamente. De Carlos Fuentes autor de Aura, La Silla del Águila, La región más transparente y La muerte de Artemio Cruz. Ganador del Premio Príncipe de Asturias 1994 y el Premio Cervantes 1987. En Los años con Laura Díaz, Fuentes, como nunca antes, es fiel a su propósito de describirnos el cruce de caminos donde coinciden la vida individual y la vida colectiva. La familia que formará Cósima en Veracruz, casada con Felipe, cuya madre era francesa, estará integrada también por otras tres mujeres: Hilda, Virginia y Leticia, la madre de Laura. En esta novela Carlos Fuentes narra una saga familiar entremezclada con la historia cultural y política de un México convulso, donde todo parece estar gestándose simultáneamente. El clamor del tumulto que quiere cambiar el destino de México converge con la ruta colorida de un par de grandes de la pintura universal: Frida Kahlo y Diego Rivera. Otros autores han opinado: "Los años con Laura Díaz emociona, conmueve, arranca carcajadas; además tiene ambición y a su autor le sobra oficio para cumplir con ella" -Álvaro Enrigue, Letras Libres- ENGLISH DESCRIPTION "A radiant and epic new novel that is among the finest achievements of Mexico's greatest man of letters. The Years With Laura Diaz is Carlos Fuentes' most important novel in several decades. Like his masterpiece The Death of Artemio Cruz, the action begins in the state of Veracruz and moves to Mexico City--tracing a migration during the Revolution and its aftermath that was a feature of Mexico's demographic history and that is a significant element in Fuentes's fictional world. Now the principle figure is not Artemio Cruz (who, however, makes a brief appearance) but Fuentes's first major female protagonist, the extraordinary Laura Diaz. Carlos Fuentes's richly woven narrative tapestry-filled with a multitude of dramatic scenes both witty, amusing, and heartbreaking-shows us this wonderful creature as she grows into a politically committed artist who is also a wife and mother, a lover of great men, a complicated and alluring heroine whose brave honesty prevails despite her losing a son and grandson to the darkest forces of Mexico's repressive, corrupt regimes. In the end, Laura Diaz herself dies, after a life filled with tragedy and loss, but she is a happy woman, for she has borne witness to, and helped to affect, the course of history and has vindicated the aims and intentions of the highest art."
Download or read book Utopia written by Tomas Moro and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-07-30 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bien es sabido que Tom�s Moro (1478-1535) no invent� la utop�a como g�nero literario, pero es innegable que su Utop�a le ha dado el nombre. Tampoco se puede negar que, exista o no convergencia con sus planteamientos, la propuesta de Moro innov� significativamente la literatura pol�tica. Utop�a es una cr�tica al orden social establecido en la Europa de la �poca, pero el sistema pol�tico que propone y describe minuciosamente en sus p�ginas es tambi�n una alternativa al mismo, de tal forma que, como se�ala Savater, la contradicci�n de la obra, y la nuestra propia, al considerar lo que en realidad es un ejercicio literario de denuncia moral como un programa pol�tico que, revolucionario en s� mismo, no admite la revoluci�n ni la disidencia. El hecho de que Moro obvie en sus planteamientos el reconocimiento de la libertad humana confiere a Utop�a la irracionalidad de la que huye, la imprevisibilidad que le niega el autor. Porque m�s all� de la utop�a colectivista siempre est� el ideal de la persona libre.

Book Synopsis Magical Realism and Literature by : Christopher Warnes
Download or read book Magical Realism and Literature written by Christopher Warnes and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2020-11-12 with total page 730 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Magical realism can lay claim to being one of most recognizable genres of prose writing. It mingles the probable and improbable, the real and the fantastic, and it provided the late-twentieth century novel with an infusion of creative energy in Latin America, Africa, Asia, and beyond. Writers such as Alejo Carpentier, Gabriel García Márquez, Isabel Allende, Salman Rushdie, Ben Okri, and many others harnessed the resources of narrative realism to the representation of folklore, belief, and fantasy. This book sheds new light on magical realism, exploring in detail its global origins and development. It offers new perspectives of the history of the ideas behind this literary tradition, including magic, realism, otherness, primitivism, ethnography, indigeneity, and space and time.
