Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A finales del XIX, siglo de suenos y pesadillas para Mexico, la peninsula de Yucatan ofrecia dos caras de la realidad: por un lado, la esclavitud campesina subyugada por el cultivo del henequen y, por el otro, el ideal de progreso y la promesa de prosperidad economica Conocida en la epoca como el oro verde mexicano, esta especie de agave impulso el desarrollo de una poderosa agroindustria que sobrevivio hasta la invencion de las fibras sinteticas que la sustituyeron. Sin embargo, el costo humano de la explotacion del henequen fue tan alto que por largo tiempo muchos episodios atroces se mantuvieron en la sombra. En Mexico esclavizado, Francisco Martin Moreno arremete con las mejores armas que posee contra ese silencio: a partir de la historia de amor entre Olegario y Marion fabula la historia de una defensa a ultranza de la dignidad humana y de la justicia social. Con una trama excitante e impredecible, el autor logra un acto de restitucion del tipo que solo la literatura nos puede brindar.ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONAt the end of the nineteenth century, a time of dreams and nightmares for Mexico, the Yucatan peninsula offered two sides of reality: on one hand, peasant slaves subjugated by the production of henequen, and on the other, the ideal of progress and the promise of economical prosperity. Known at the time as Mexican green gold, this species of agave pushed the development of a powerful agroindustry that survived up to the invention of the synthetic fibers that replaced it. However, the human cost of henequen exploitation was so high, that many atrocious episodes were kept in the dark for a long time. In An Enslaved Mexico, Francisco Martin Moreno lashes out with the best weapons he has against silence: based on the love story between Olegario and Marion, he invents the story of a staunch defense of human dignity and social justice. With an exciting and unpredictable plot, the author brings forth an act of restitution, the kind that only literature is able to provide.
