Life and Deeds of the Famous Gentleman Don Catrin de la Fachenda by Jos Fernndezdelizardi
Don Catrin de la Fachenda, here translated into English for the first time, is a picaresque novel by the Mexican writer Jose Joaquin Fernandez de Lizardi (1776-1827), best known as the author of El periquillo sarniento (The Itching Parrot), often called the first Latin American novel.
The work offers a complex portrait of negotiated identities, and, despite its ending on a moralizing note, a modern audience will find it delightfully subversive"—Kelly Washbourne, Kent State University
"This highly readable translation is sure to become a required text in surveys of Latin American or hemispheric American literature in translation and in first-year seminars on literary and cultural studies topics."—Ronald Briggs, Barnard College
