Omschrijving

Birds Without A Nest is a historical novel written by Clorinda Matto De Turner, originally published in Spanish in 1889. The story is set in the Andean region of Peru during the late 19th century and centers around the lives of indigenous people who are oppressed by the Catholic Church and the Peruvian government. The novel follows the lives of two indigenous families, the Huayllas and the Taquisaras, who are forced to leave their ancestral lands due to the construction of a railway. They are then subjected to the cruel treatment of the local priest, Father Gabriel, who is determined to convert them to Christianity and assimilate them into Peruvian culture. The novel explores themes of cultural identity, oppression, and resistance, as the indigenous people fight to maintain their way of life and traditions. It also sheds light on the complex power dynamics between the Catholic Church and the Peruvian government, as well as the impact of colonialism on indigenous communities. Birds Without A Nest is considered a landmark work of Peruvian literature and a significant contribution to the Latin American literary canon. It has been translated into several languages and continues to be studied and celebrated for its portrayal of indigenous life and resistance in Peru.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
