The Pond: Puerto Rico's Classic 19th Century Novel: a Moving Chronicle about Love, Greed, Murder and Heroism
Manuel Zeno-Gandia
First published in 1894, this was widely acknowledged as the first major novel to emerge from Puerto Rico. The bitter melodrama offers stark contrasts: the beautiful Puerto Rican countryside, a veritable Garden of Eden; yet within it, starved, diseased human beings cling desperately to life.
