The Underdogs

A Novel of the Mexican Revolution (Penguin Classics)

Mariano Azuela

Experience the Mexican Revolution through the eyes of poor, illiterate Indian Demetrio Macias in this iconic novel. Join the rebels as they struggle to save their families, led by the courageous and charismatic Macias. As he rises to become a general in Pancho Villa's army, witness the limits of political idealism and the factionalization of the cause. An authentic representation of Mexico's peasant life and a timeless portrait of revolution, The Underdogs is a powerful novel about the disillusionment of war.
