Recognized in Mexico as one of the country's most important
contemporary dramatists, Emilio Carballido has only recently become
known in other countries through his plays and short stories. This
translation introduces Carballido as a novelist. In The Norther
what makes and breaks human relationships is his central interest
as he traces the course of a relationship between a widow and a
young man. The characters are created as their emotional and
psychological outlines are drawn, and it is in the characterization
that the hand of the dramatist is revealed. But it is Carballido's
novelistic talent that has made The Norther the object of widely
divergent interpretations. The critical conflict aroused by this
novel is discussed in an Introduction by the translator, Margaret
Sayers Peden.
