Overview
Publicado originalmente en 1971, Tiempo mexicano se consolidó con los años como uno de los retratos más certeros de la idiosincrasia mexicana, uno en el que conviven la cosmología indígena, las heridas de la Conquista, las esperanzas de la independencia, los retos de la Revolución y las ambiciones y promesas del México moderno.
A 50 años de su publicación original, este libro sigue alimentando la reflexión sobre el desarrollo y el devenir del proyecto de nación llamado México, y constituye un acompañamiento obligado a la obra narrativa de Carlos Fuentes, que tiene como eje rector al tiempo y sus circularidades.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
“Wholeness and immediacy are the two traits that Fuentes highlights in Mexican Time. They are the antipodes of his own work”, Pedro Ángel Palou, Revista de la Universidad.
First published in 1971, over the years, Mexican Time became one of the most accurate portraits of Mexican idiosyncrasy, one where indigenous cosmogony coexists with the wounds from the Conquest, the hopes of Independence, the challenges of the Revolution, and the ambitions and promises of modern Mexico.
Fifty years after its publication, this book still fuels reflection about the progress and evolution of a project of a nation called Mexico, and represents a mandatory companion to Carlos Fuentes’ narrative, which takes time and its cycles as guiding principle.
