When profiteering outsiders encroach on their territory and threaten to abuse the fertile land, they enter a bloody struggle to protect their way of life. Blurring the lines between history and mythology, Nobel Prize winner Miguel Ángel Asturias's lush, dream-like work offers a prescient warning against the loss of ancestral wisdom and the environmental destruction set in motion by colonial oppression and capitalist greed.","brand":"Penguin Books Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50131019890976,"sku":"9780143138402","price":14.44,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0753\/2812\/7264\/files\/9780143138402.jpg?v=1769176337","url":"https:\/\/bookcorner.com\/products\/men-of-maize-miguel-angel-asturias-9780143138402","provider":"The Book Corner","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
