Edici�n conmemorativa de la obra maestra de Miguel �ngel Asturias, Premio Nobel de Literatura. Escrita entre 1920 y 1933 y publicada en 1946, El se�or presidente es uno de los m�ximos exponentes de la llamada �novela del dictador� en la que se encuadran otras obras fundamentales como Yo el Supremo , de Roa Bastos, Tirano Banderas , de Valle-Incl�n, El oto�o del patriarca , de Gabriel Garc�a M�rquez, o m�s recientemente, La Fiesta del Chivo , de Mario Vargas Llosa. En ella, Asturias se inspira en el �ltimo gobierno de Manuel Estrada Cabrera, en Guatemala, para explorar los mecanismos que hacen funcionar una dictadura pol�tica, as� como sus efectos en la sociedad. Narrada desde distintos puntos de vista que van conformando de manera indirecta la figura del Presidente, esta novela es uno de los antecedentes m�s notables del boom latinoamericano y del realismo m�gico, cuyo m�ximo exponente es Garc�a M�rquez. Su declarada condena de las injusticias y la tiran�a le vali� ser censurada y prohibida durante trece a�os, mientras que, en contraposici�n, su riqueza estil�stica y la originalidad de su estructura narrativa la convirtieron en una de las novelas que m�s influyeron en toda una generaci�n de autores de Am�rica Latina. Adaptada al cine y al teatro, y traducida a los principales idiomas, la novela tuvo una gran acogida en el momento de su publicaci�n tanto por la cr�tica como por los lectores. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A Commemorative edition of the Nobel Prize for Literature, Miguel �ngel Asturias' masterpiece. Published in 1946, The President is one of the greatest representations of a "dictator novel", an honor that it shares with other fundamental works such as I the Supreme , by Roa Bastos, The Autumn of the Patriarch , by Garc�a M�rquez, and The Feast of the Goat , by Mario Vargas Llosa. Asturias' work is inspired by Estrada Cabrera's last government in Guatemala, in it he explores the mechanisms that make a political dictatorship work, as well as its effects on society. Preceding the Latin American Boom and magical realism, his condemnation of injustices and tyranny earned his masterful work to be banned for thirteen years, while the richness of his technique and original structure made it one of the novels that most influenced a whole generation of Latin American authors.
