Pedro Páramo: Edición conmemorativa 70 años by Juan Rulfo

Commemorating the 70th edition of its original publication, this Spanish-language edition of Pedro Páramo includes unmissable archival material, including more than 100 cover designs from translated editions in over 30 languages. A charming black-and-white postcard of Rulfo placed between the pages provides a glimpse into the character and personality of the "father of magical realism."

The corpus of his narrative work is his short story collection El llano en llamas, his novella El gallo de oro and the novel Pedro Páramo. He was a member of the Mexican Academy of Language.
