Los de Abajo
ISBN: 9780140266214 / Hiszpański / Miękka / 1997 / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In this deeply moving picture of the turmoil of the first great revolution of the twentieth century--the Mexican Revolution of 1910--Azuela depicts the anarchy and the idealism, the base human passions and the valor and nobility of the simple folk, and, most striking of all, the fascination of revolt--that peculiar love of revolution for revolution's sake that has characterized most of the social upheavals of the twentieth century.
