{ "item_title" : "Pedro Páramo", "item_author" : [" Juan Rulfo "], "item_description" : "Desconcertante, lista a inquietar a la cr tica, est ya en los escaparates la primera novela de Juan Rulfo, Pedro P ramo, que transcurre en una serie de transposiciones on ricas, ahondando m s all de la muerte de sus personajes, que uno no sabe en qu momento son sue o, vida, f bula, verdad, pero a los que se les oye la voz al trav s de la 'perspicacia despiadada y certera' de tan sin duda extraordinario escritor. Con estas palabras iniciaba Edmundo Valad s la primera rese a de Pedro P ramo, aparecida el 30 de marzo de 1955 y conservada por Rulfo entre sus papeles. Desde entonces, escritores como Jorge Luis Borges, Gabriel Garc a M rquez, Gunter Grass, Susan Sontag y Mario Vargas Llosa, o el cineasta Werner Herzog, entre muchos m s de cualquier lengua, coinciden en calificar esta novela como una de las obras maestras de la literatura de todos los tiempos.The work of Juan Rulfo (1917-1986) is doubtless the Mexican literary creation which has received the greatest acclaim both in Mexico and abroad. The novel Pedro P ramo underwent a long gestation. Rulfo mentioned it for the first time in a letter in 1947, and was able to work on it in 1953-1954 thanks to a grant from the Centro Mexicano de Escritores. Excerpts were published in three maga¬zines in 1954, before the novel appeared in book form in 1955. This masterpiece has numbered Gabriel Garc a M rquez, Jorge Luis Borges, and Susan Sontag among its admirers. Pedro P ramo evokes the very essence of Mexico through the most advanced literary forms and techniques of the twentieth century. Few works affect a Mexican reader as deeply as this novel, which also holds a place as a classic of world literature. It has been translated into almost fifty languages and new versions appear every year.", "item_img_path" : "https://covers3.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/8/49/344/260/8493442607_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "12.95", "online_price" : "12.95", "our_price" : "12.95", "club_price" : "12.95", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
