Publisher's Synopsis

In these stories by Jose Maria Arguedas is advertised the problem that would end up governing all of her writing: the life, fate, and suffering of the Native Americans in the towns and villages of the mountains of Peru. The theme for excellence of her work is the confrontation between two cultures: the Andean of Quechua origin and the urban citizens of European races. Born in Andahuaylas, in the heart of the poorest and most neglected Andean area of the country, he had contact from infancy with the environments and personalities that he would incorporate into his work. For this reason his work reveals the profound love he has for the Andean Peruvian culture, to whom he owes his most formative years, and represents, without a doubt, the peak of Peruvian indigenous life.

En estos Relatos de José Marìa Arguedas se advierte la problemática que terminarìa por presidir toda su escritura: la vida, los azares y los sufrimientos de los indios en las haciendas y aldeas de la sierra del Perú. El tema por excelencia de su obra es la confrontación entre dos culturas: la andina de origen quechua y la urbana de raìces europeas. Nacido en Andahuaylas, en el corazón de la zona andina más pobre y olvidada del paìs, estuvo en contacto desde la infancia con los ambientes y personajes que incorporarìa a su obra. Por esta razón su obra revela el profundo amor del escritor por la cultura andina peruana, a la que debió su más temprana formación, y representa, sin duda, la cumbre del indigenismo peruano.
