Beseeched by his dying mother to locate his father, Pedro Páaacute;ramo, whom they fled from years ago, Juan Preciado sets out for Comala. Comala is a town alive with whispers and shadows-a place seemingly populated only by memory and hallucinations. Built on the tyranny of the Páramo family, its barren and broken-down streets echo the voices of tormented spirits sharing the secrets of the past.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFirst published to both critical and popular acclaim in 1955, \u003cem\u003ePedro Páramo\u003c\/em\u003e represented a distinct break with earlier, largely \"realist\" novels from Latin America. Rulfo's entrancing mixture of vivid sensory images, violent passions, and inexplicable sorcery--a style that has come to be known as 'magical realism\"--has exerted a profound influence on subsequent Latin American writers, from Jos' Donoso and Carlos Fuentes to Mario Vargas Llosa and Gabriel Garcia Márquez.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Grove Press","offers":[{"title":"Pedro Páramo | Juan Rulfo | Paperback | 9780802133908 | Used: Like New | Back Stacks G 1788796","offer_id":67846787989656,"sku":"1788796","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/71sT06P_AeL.jpg?v=1793376571","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/pedro-paramo","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
