Immerse yourself in the extraordinary life of Artemio Cruz, a powerful newspaper magnate and land baron, as he navigates the blurred boundaries between dreams, memories, and reality. On his deathbed, Cruz's thoughts flit among pivotal moments crafted by renowned author Carlos Fuentes, offering glimpses into a world of magical realism. Author Carlos Fuentes manipulates the ensuing kaleidoscope of images with dazzling inventiveness, layering memory upon memory, from Cruz's heroic campaigns during the Mexican Revolution, through his relentless climb from poverty to wealth, to his uneasy death. Perhaps Fuentes's masterpiece, The Death of Artemio Cruz is a haunting voyage into the soul of modern Mexico.
