Publisher's Summary

Una de las grandes novelas americanas. La terrorifica magnitud de la selva amazonica es el telon de fondo de la unica novela del gran poeta y escritor colombiano Jose Eustasio Rivera, La voragine. Los personajes son tragados literalmente por la selva, pero ese retrato que hizo Rivera de esa naturaleza salvaje e indomable y de sus personajes, Arturo Cova que busca escapar de sus deberes sociales y de su amada Alicia, una mujer caprichosa, ya es parte de las mas brillantes creaciones de la literatura americana. Es ademas novela de crítica en especial a los explotadores de las grandes caucheras de la region, y por el lenguaje brillante en que esta escrita, esta obra ha sido catalogada como una de las grandes novelas americanas.

The terrifyng magnitude of the forest is the backdrop of a novel that is justly considered one of the greatest products of Latin-American literature. The characters are swallowed by the jungle, but the picture of wild and indomitable nature is in the center of a fascinating book.
