Více o knize
Set in the mountain forests of Guatemala, the story follows a community of Indigenous Mayans, the 'men of maize,' who fiercely defend their sacred corn crops from encroaching outsiders. This conflict escalates into a bloody struggle to preserve their culture and land. Blending history with mythology, Miguel Ángel Asturias's evocative narrative serves as a poignant warning about the dangers of losing ancestral wisdom and the environmental devastation driven by colonialism and capitalism.
