Description
Miguel Ángel Asturias explores Guatemala's pre-Columbian heritage in this work, reimagining the country's ancient traditions. Through his writing, he has incorporated elements of the past into an artistic adventure, bringing forgotten stories to life and shifting the focus from historical figures to those overlooked by history.
The pages of Hombres de maíz are populated with the descendants of those who survived the Conquest, who endured various catastrophes throughout Guatemala's history, and who were recreated in Asturias' work during the first half of the 20th century. This book is a testament to Asturias' connection to Guatemala's indigenous people.
This edition features 564 pages, bound in paperback, making it an accessible introduction to Asturias' unique vision.
