Una novela fundamental de la literatura en castellano del siglo XX. Un autor a la altura de Rulfo y alabado por autores como Gabriel García Márquez.

Nueva edición conmemorativa de la Real Academia Española y la Asociación de Academias de la Lengua Española.

Publicada en 1958 y considerada la novela más importante de Arguedas, en Los ríos profundos se trata por primera vez en la literatura latinoamericana la figura del indio y sus problemas desde una perspectiva cercana y realista. Narra el paso a la edad adulta de un chico de catorce años que descubre las injusticias presentes en el mundo y elige su camino.

El relato recorre la geografía del sur de Perú en un viaje itinerante que le lleva a él y a su padre en busca de una vida nueva. En Abancay ingresa en un internado donde pasa a formar parte de un microcosmos que refleja cómo es la sociedad peruana y cuáles son las normas que imperan, su crueldad y su violencia. Fuera del colegio, los conflictos sociales forzarán su toma de conciencia.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

New Commemorative Edition by the Real Academia Española and the Society of Academies of the Spanish Language.

Published in 1958, Deep Rivers is considered José María Arguedas' most important novel. Arguedas is one of the few Latin American authors who loved and described his natural surroundings, and he ranks among the greatest writers of any time and place. He saw the beauty of the Peruvian landscape, as well as the grimness of social conditions in the Andes, through the eyes of the Indians who are a part of it.

Ernesto, the narrator of Deep Rivers, is a child with origins in two worlds. The son of a wandering country lawyer, he is brought up by Indian servants until he enters a Catholic boarding school at age 14. In this urban Spanish environment, he is a misfit and a loner. The conflict of the Indian and the Spanish cultures is acted out within him as it was in the life of Arguedas. For the boy Ernesto, salvation is his world of dreams and memories. While Arguedas' poetry was published in Quechua, he invented a language for his novels in which he used native syntax with Spanish vocabulary.
