Publisher Description

FonoLibro se enorgullece al presentar María, la obra cumbre de la novela romántica latinoamericana, del prestigioso escritor Colombiano Jorge Isaac.

Esta famosa y reconocida novela narra la historia de amor juvenil entre María y Efraín, enmarcada en la zona selvática del Valle del Cauca a fines siglo XIX, en la hacienda El Paraíso donde ambos crecieron. Sin embargo el camino de ambos se separo cuando, a la usanza de la época, Efraín fue enviado a Bogota a culminar sus estudios de bachillerato.

Después de seis años Efraín vuelve a El Paraíso y María, ya convertida en una hermosa mujer, encandece los sentimientos del joven y el amor se apodera de ambos corazones. Sin embargo, este bello amor es victima de un destino trágico que se interpone entre ambos enamorados.

María fue publicada originalmente en 1867 y se convirtió en una de las novelas más vendidas para su época. Hoy es una de las joyas de la literatura en español y latinoamericana que nadie debe dejar de conocer.

Viaje en el tiempo, comparta y disfrute de esta bella historia en una magnifica producción en audiolibro, con la calidad insuperable de FonoLibro.

"I got this book as a birthday present when I was in high school and we were all reading about Latin American writers. I did not only learned about Isaacs`writing style but also about Colombia."

    " Really disliked reading this novel. A mix of Romanticism and Realism, this was the best-selling Latin American novel before a little book called One Hundred Years of Solitude came along. Maria is the "ideal" woman, in 19th century terms, which means she is repellent to the present-day reader (if you're a feminist at least). The countryside is really the star of this book, and the descriptions of Colombia are wonderful. I found it to be largely forgettable. "

    " The narrative is very slow...it describes EVERYTHING....I just don't like the kind of novels that tend to describe every single detail of a scene. Thats why it was so boring to me. "
