Synopsis
La obra emblemática de una de nuestras escritoras canónicas, acompañada de un dossier crítico. Ixtepec es un pequeño poblado que ha sobrevivido los embates de la violenta presencia de las tropas de los ejércitos revolucionarios enfrentados en una lucha fratricida y sin tregua. Sus pobladores, desencantados porque la "revolución" no les llevó justicia ni progreso, llevan una vida anodina y nostálgica que se fractura otra vez ante un nuevo conicto armado, la Guerra Cristera, que promete próximas desgracias. Las autoridades han designado al general Francisco Rosas para que se haga cargo de mantener el orden y haga cumplir las disposiciones que el gobierno central disponga, en especial lo relativo al cese del culto religioso. Las vidas del general Rosas, así como las de sus colaboradores más cercanos y las de sus amantes, las de las prostitutas, beatas, perros callejeros, locos y de los miembros más conocidos de las familias pudientes de Ixtepec, se verán mezcladas y llevadas a un destino trágico, donde no tienen cabida ni la ilusión ni el amor. Esta obra, considerada por muchos dentro de la corriente del realismo mágico, sustenta la fuerza de la narración en recursos poéticos que, lejos de confundir, potencian la trama; contada a través de varias voces, nos muestra un complejo entramado de planos narrativos entretejidos por la voz pétrea y sombría de los pobladores de Ixtepec, dejando al descubierto sus más íntimos y oscuros deseos. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The emblematic work of one of Mexico's canonical writers, accompanied by a critical analysis. Ixtepec is a small village that has survived the battering of the violent presence of revolutionary troops pitted against each other in a ceaseless, fratricidal fight. Its residents, disillusioned because the "revolution" brought them neither justice nor progress, lead dull, nostalgic lives that are fractured again in the face of a new armed conflict, the Cristero War, which promises further misfortune. The authorities have charged Francisco Rosas with maintaining order and carrying out the wishes of the central government, especially those relating to ending religious worship. The lives of General Rosas, his closest collaborators, and his lovers, along with the lives of the prostitutes, clergy, street dogs, madmen, and most well-known members of Ixtepec's powerful families become intertwined and led to a tragic destiny, where there is no room for dreams or love. This work, considered by many to be in the vein of magic realism, supports the strength of its storytelling with poetic devices which merely enhance the plot. Told through various voices, this novel shows us a complex web of narrative planes that are interwoven through the stony, somber voices of Ixtepec's residents, exposing their darkest, most intimate desires., La obra emblem tica de una de nuestras escritoras can nicas, acompa ada de un dossier cr tico.
