For a writer so reserved in what he saw into print, Juan Rulfo has
had a disproportional influence on writers of literature in
Spanish, and beyond, on a par with Borges and Gabriel Garcia
Marquez. El Llano in flames provides a pithy and moving expression
of life in central and western Mexico in the decades following the
Revolution. These stories have the quality of an oral testimony to
harsh years, delivered in a spare and exquisite voice. They are
amongst the best short stories ever written. This new translation
marks the first time this masterpiece of Latin American literature
been made available to English-language readers beyond North
America since the book was first published in Spanish in 1953.
