Happy Families
ISBN: 9780747596172 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 352 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. These stories are punctuated by a chorus, commenting on the underbelly of modern Mexican life, offering a raw but richly textured glimpse of the inequalities of that society - street children, junkies, dead rock icons, the ideal wife, a honeymoon gone wrong, a child suicide, a man faking his death and beginning a new life.

Útlá novela Vlad vyšla těsně před autorovou smrtí (2012) a dá se považovat za jakousi bilanci na konci života. Fuentes je v duchu mexických tradic smrtí nadmíru zaujat – smrt se objevuje nejenom v názvu jeho nejslavnějšího díla, ale prostupuje veškerou jeho tvorbu, v níž přízraky minulosti splývají s děsy současnosti, takže někdy jen stěží rozpoznáme, co se odehrává ve vlastním příběhu a co jsou jen sny a představy postav. Ve Vladovi, Fuentesově moderní variaci na upírský mýtus, přesazený z rumunských Karpat do lidnatého hlavního města...

As the novel opens, Artemio Cruz, the all-powerful newspaper magnate and land baron, lies confined to his bed and, in dreamlike flashes, recalls the pivotal episodes of his life.

Perhaps Fuentes's masterpiece, The Death of Artemio Cruz is a haunting voyage into the soul of modern Mexico.

One of Carlos Fuentes's greatest works, The Old Gringo tells the story of Ambrose Bierce, the American writer, soldier, and journalist, and of his last mysterious days in Mexico living among Pancho Villa's soldiers, particularly his encounter with General Tomas Arroyo.

The Years with Laura Diaz

Carlos Fuentes's hope-filled new novel sees the twentieth century through the eyes of Laura D'az, a woman who becomes as much a part of our history as of the Mexican history she observes and helps to create. Born in 1898, this extraordinary woman grows into a wife and mother, becomes the lover of great men, and, before her death in 1972, is celebrated as a politically committed artist. A complicated and alluring heroine, she lives a happy life despite the tragedies and losses she... A radiant family saga set in a century of Mexican history, by one of the world's greatest writers.
