Mr. President – hinnat ja saatavuus

" A] brilliant translation . . . Electrifying vividness animates every page." ―Claire Messud, Harper's Magazine "A formidable new English translation." ―The New Yorker " A] masterful translation." ―The Washington Post Nobel Prize-winning Guatemalan author Miguel ngel Asturias's masterpiece--the original Latin American dictator novel and pioneering work of magical realism--in its first new English translation in more than half a century, featuring a foreword by Nobel laureate Mario Vargas Llosa Also available from Penguin Classics: Miguel ngel Asturias's visionary epic of ecological devastation, capitalist exploitation, and Indigenous wisdom, Men of Maize In an unnamed country, an egomaniacal dictator schemes to dispose of a political adversary and maintain his grip on power. As tyranny takes hold, everyone is forced to choose between compromise and death. Inspired by life under the regime of President Manuel Estrada Cabrera of Guatemala, where it was banned for many years, and infused with exuberant lyricism, Mayan symbolism, and Guatemalan vernacular, Nobel Prize winner Miguel ngel Asturias's magnum opus is at once a surrealist masterpiece, a blade-sharp satire of totalitarianism, and a gripping portrait of psychological terror.
