The work is narrated by an eyewitness, the then second lieutenant, Heriberto Fr?s, and written by him in collaboration with Joaquin Clausell, editor of the newspaper which published it in serial form between March and April of 1893. For a period after the series' publication, the author chose to maintain anonymity. It was expressly this stance which excited more public interest than any other Mexican writer of the 19th century and which eventually led to a drawn out trial to uncover the identity of the author and to implicate him. For, although it is a work of fiction, the general plot of the work, involving a confrontation between a professional army and a handful of citizens, was too similar to the actual massacre as to not be seen by Porfirio D?z as a reprovement of himself and his regime. As a piece of literature, the novel is also admired for its incorporation of two important trends of the nineteenth century-history as literature and the war novel.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Heriberto Fr?s, Barbara Jamison\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0195117433\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780195117431\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/14\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.58lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.26h x 5.52w x 0.60d","brand":"Heriberto Fr?s","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43914190225663,"sku":"9780195117431","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_29c6e4a2-30bb-4bf2-ac48-279ab7cbccba.jpg?v=1680640859"},{"product_id":"the-red-badge-of-courage-stephen-crane-9780199552542","title":"The Red Badge of Courage and Other Stories","description":"Oxford offers the most generously annotated edition of \u003cem\u003eThe Red Badge of Courage\u003c\/em\u003e (1895), a vivid psychological account of a young man's experience fighting in the American Civil War based on Crane's reading of popular descriptions of battle.
