Octavio Paz has long been acknowledged as Mexico's foremost writer
and critic. In this international classic, Paz has written one of
the most enduring and powerful works ever created on Mexico and its
people, character, and culture. Compared to Ortega y Gasset's The
Revolt of the Masses for its trenchant analysis, this collection
contains his most famous work, "The Labyrinth of Solitude," a
beautifully written and deeply felt discourse on Mexico's quest for
identity that gives us an unequalled look at the country hidden
behind "the mask." Also included are "The Other Mexico," "Return to
the Labyrinth of Solitude," "Mexico and the United States," and
"The Philanthropic Ogre," all of which develop the themes of the
title essay and extend his penetrating commentary to the United
States and Latin America.
