Edicin conmemorativa de la obra maestra de Miguel ngel Asturias, Premio Nobel de Literatura.Escrita entre 1920 y 1933 y publicada en 1946, El seor presidente es uno de los mximos exponentes de la llamada novela del dictador en la que se encuadran otras obras fundamentales como Yo el Supremo, de Roa Bastos, Tirano Banderas, de ValleIncln, El otoo del patriarca, de Gabriel Garca Mrquez, o ms recientemente, La Fiesta del Chivo, de Mario Vargas Llosa. En ella, Asturias se inspira en el ltimo gobierno de Manuel Estrada Cabrera, en Guatemala, para explorar los mecanismos que hacen funcionar una dictadura poltica, as como sus efectos en la sociedad.Narrada desde distintos puntos de vista que van conformando de manera indirecta la figura del Presidente, esta novela es uno de los antecedentes ms notables del boom latinoamericano y del realismo mgico, cuyo mximo exponente es Garca Mrquez. Su declarada condena de las injusticias y la tirana le vali ser censurada y prohibida durante trece aos, mientras que, en contraposicin, su riqueza estilstica y la originalidad de su estructura narrativa la convirtieron en una de las novelas que ms influyeron en toda una generacin de autores de Amrica Latina.Adaptada al cine y al teatro, y traducida a los principales idiomas, la novela tuvo una gran acogida en el momento de su publicacin tanto por la crtica como por los lectores.ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONA Commemorative edition of the Nobel Prize for Literature, Miguel ngel Asturias masterpiece.Published in 1946, The President is one of the greatest representations of a 'dictator novel', an honor that it shares with other fundamental works such as I the Supreme, by Roa Bastos, The Autumn of the Patriarch, by Garca Mrquez, and The Feast of the Goat, by Mario Vargas Llosa.Asturias work is inspired by Estrada Cabreras last government in Guatemala, in it he explores the mechanisms that make a political dictatorship work, as well as its effects on society.Preceding the Latin American Boom and magical realism, his condemnation of injustices and tyranny earned his masterful work to be banned for thirteen years, while the richness of his technique and original structure made it one of the novels that most influenced a whole generation of Latin American authors.
