The Carreta

From the enigmatic author of The Treasure of the Sierra Madre comes The Carreta, the second volume in B. Traven’s epic multivolume Jungle Novels series.

An astonishing portrait of Mexican life in the early twentieth century, the story follows a young Indian named Andres Ugalde as he struggles to break free of debt slavery around the time of the Revolution.

“B. Traven is coming to be recognized as one of the narrative masters of the twentieth century.” —The New York Times
