The Art of Mariano Azuela: Modernism in la Malhora, el Desquite, la Luciernaga

Constituting a significant contribution to intellectual analysis of Mariano Azuela, this study and literary critique gives special attention to the Mexican novelist's more experimental works. The book identifies Mariano Azuela as the first modern Mexican novelist of the twentieth century and provides an in-depth look at the influences of the writer upon writing in Mexico as a whole.
