Miguel Angel Asturias's Archeology of Return - Cambridge Studies in Latin American and Iberian Literature
Reni Prieto
René Prieto examines how Miguel Angel Asturias turns to the cultural traditions of the ancient Maya and combines them with the rhetoric of surrealism in order to produce three highly complex and widely misunderstood masterpieces; the Leyendas de Guatemala (1930), Hombres de maiz (1949) and Mulata de tal (1963).
