Περιγραφή
“A novel whose time has come: the Nobel Prize–winning author’s visionary epic of ecological devastation, capitalist exploitation and indigenous wisdom Deep in the mountain forests of Guatemala, a community of Indigenous Mayans – the ‘men of maize’ – serves as stewards to sacred corn crops. When profiteering outsiders encroach on their territory and threaten to abuse the fertile land, they enter a bloody struggle to protect their way of life. Blurring the lines between history and mythology, Nobel Prize winner Miguel Angel Asturias’s lush, dream-like work offers a prescient warning against the loss of ancestral wisdom and the environmental destruction set in motion by colonial oppression and capitalist greed.”
