La obra de Juan Rulfo (1917 1986) es sin duda la creación literaria mexicana que ha recibido mayor reconocimiento dentro y fuera de su país. La novela Pedro Paramo tuvo una larga gestación. Rulfo la menciona por primera vez en una carta de 1947, y puede trabajar en ella hasta terminarla entre 1953 y 1954, gracias a una beca del Centro Mexicano de Escritores. En 1954 publica adelantos de la misma en tres revistas y en 1955 aparece como libro. Entre los admiradores de esta obra maestra, habiendo escrito tambien sobre ella, figuran Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Jorge Luis Borges y Susan Sontag. Pedro Paramo recoge lo más profundo de Mexico y las formas y técnicas literarias más avanzadas de su siglo. Pocas obras tocan al lector mexicano como ésta, considerada también un clásico de la literatura universal. (Texto definitivo de la obra establecido por la Fundación Juan Rulfo

Juan Rulfo (México, 1918-1986) es el autor de dos clásicos del siglo XX: "Pedro Páramo" (1955) y el libro de relatos "El llano en llamas" (1953). Posteriormente solo publicó "El gallo de oro y otros textos para cine" (1980).
Rulfo's reputation rests on two slim books, the novel Pedro Paramo (1955) and El Llano En Llamas (1953), a collection of sort stories. Fifteen of these stories have been translated into English as The Burning Plains and Other Stories. This collection includes the admired tale "¡Diles que no me maten!" (Tell them not to kill me!).

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Winner, Fred Whitehead Award for the Best Design of a Trade Book from Texas Institute of Letters Western Books Exhibition Selection, Rounce & Coffin Club, 2003Deserted villages of rural Mexico, where images and memories of the past linger like unquiet ghosts, haunted the imaginations of two artists--writer Juan Rulfo and photographer Josephine Sacabo. In one such village of the mind, Comala, Rulfo set his classic novel Pedro Paramo, a dream-like tale that intertwines a man's quest to find his lost father and reclaim his patrimony with the father's obsessive love for a woman who will not be possessed--Susana San Juan. Recognizing that Rulfo was describing a world I already knew and feeling a very personal response, particularly to Susana San Juan and her dilemma, Josephine Sacabo used Rulfo's novel as the starting point for a series of evocative photographs she calls The Unreachable World of Susana San Juan: Homage to Juan Rulfo.This volume brings together Rulfo's novel and Sacabo's photographs to offer a dual artistic vision of the same unforgettable story. Margaret Sayers Peden's superb translation renders the novel as poetic and mysterious in English as it is in Spanish. Josephine Sacabo's photographs tell, in her words, the story of a woman forced to take refuge in madness as a means of protecting her inner world from the ravages of the forces around her: a cruel and tyrannical patriarchy, a church that offers no redemption, the senseless violence of revolution, death itself.
