With the panoramic sweep of a Diego Rivera mural, the novel weaves together dozens of plot lines, perspectives, and characters. Blending a wealth of historical information and local detail with a profound understanding of the complex relationship between victim and tormentor, Castellanos captures the ambiguities that underlie all struggles for power.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nA masterpiece of contemporary Latin American fiction from Mexico’s greatest twentieth-century woman writer, The Book of Lamentations was translated with an afterword by Ester Allen and introduction by Alma Guillermoprieto.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780141180038\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePackage Dimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.6 x 5.0 x 1.0 inches\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguages:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50118274285872,"sku":"Trans_9780141180038","price":1013.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0690\/9968\/4144\/files\/817E0vIzdkL.jpg?v=1757155765","url":"https:\/\/www.retailmaharaj.com\/products\/the-book-of-lamentations-classic-20th-century-penguin","provider":"Retail Maharaj","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
