Juan Rulfo is one of the most important writers of twentieth-century Mexico, though he wrote only two booksthe novel Pedro Pramo (1955) and the short story collection El llano en llamas (1953). First translated into English in 1967 as The Burning Plain, these starkly realistic stories create a psychologically acute portrait of poverty and dignity in the countryside at a time when Mexico was undergoing rapid industrialization following the upheavals of the Revolution. According to Ilan Stavans, the stories' "depth seems almost inexhaustible: with a few strokes, Rulfo creates a complex human landscape defined by desolation. These stories are lessons in morality. . . . They are also astonishing examples of artistic distillation." Gabriel Garcia Marquez once said: To me Rulfos short stories are as important as his novel Pedro Pramo.
