About the Author:
Alejo Carpentier was a Cuban novelist and musicologist. As a political exile in Paris between 1928 and 1939, Carpentier was strongly influenced by Antonin Artaud, Jacques Prévert, and the surrealists. Reflecting his deep commitment to revolutionary politics, his novels explore the irrational elements of the Latin American world, its rich variety of cultures, and the possibility of its magical transformation. Widely regarded as one of the greatest modern Latin American writers, Carpentier was also important as a theorist of the region's literature and historian of its music. Among his works are Ecue-Yamba-O, The Lost Steps, The Chase, The Kingdom of This World, The War of Time, Reasons of State, and The Harp and the Shadow .

Book Description Softcover. Condition: New. edici. Pieza magistral de la narrativa latinoamericana y perfecta ilustración del concepto de lo real maravilloso, LOS PASOS PERDIDOS, publicada en 1953, inauguró el periodo de plenitud creadora de la obra de Alejo Carpentier (1904-1980). Inspirado en experiencias personales vividas por el autor en el interior de Venezuela, el viaje del anónimo protagonista de la novela que le lleva a remontar el Orinoco hasta el interior de la selva en busca de un primitivo instrumento musical se revela asimismo como un retroceso en el tiempo, a través de las etapas históricas más significativas de América, hasta los mismos orígenes, hasta la época de las primeras formas y de la invención del lenguaje.
