Abstract

Mexican Masses
Azuela, Mariano | January 16, 1929 issue

add to cart   close window

Eight years after the end of her turmoil Mexico has evoked a stirring national style. It took 400 years of misery and ten of death and chaos to make the new Mexico, the Mexico of monumental painters and muscular symphonic music. Now comes the literature, for the first time Mexican in body and soul; vividly in one novel which is the dramatic story of a bona Me guerrilla. "Los tie Abajo" is not, however, merely a story. It is a cross-section of the mass in revolutions marching, singing, drinking, looting, catapulting through anyons and tearing through fort walls with no articulate cause or purpose, but with a resistless urge; in rhythm and genesis, volcanic.
