"...a Mexican classic. The first-person narrative traces Juan's life from childhood as he serves in three different armies during the revolution, goes to jail for a crime he only witnessed and returns to his village to serve happily in its religious and civic hierarchy. His vitality and resilience make him the hero of an authentic epic."
