About this ebook:
Este libro es una reflexión crítica sobre la cultura mexicana contemporánea. Se han elegido los lugares comunes del carácter del mexicano: se trata de un manojo de estereotipos codificados por la intelectualidad, pero cuyas huellas se reproducen en la sociedad, provocando el espejismo de una cultura popular de masas. Estas imágenes sobre "lo mexicano" no son reflejo de la conciencia popular (suponiendo, cosa que se duda, que dicha conciencia exista como entidad única y homogénea). Al leer con actitud sensata los estudios sobre "lo mexicano" se llega a la conclusión de que el carácter del mexicano es una entelequia artificial, sólo tiene una existencia literaria y mitológica, lo que no le resta fuerza e importancia, pero debe hacer que reflexione sobre la manera en que se puede penetrar el fenómeno y sobre la peculiar forma en la que se inserta en la estructura cultural y social de México. En un país que parece naufragar, azotado por las inclemencias de la crisis y sumido en el despotismo político, surge la terrible pregunta: ¿tiene sentido ser mexicano? A partir de esta interrogante, se critican ásperamente los mitos de la identidad nacional: se propone al lector un juego macabro: hacer la disección de un cadáver, el mexicano inventado por la cultura dominante. El espécimen descubierto por el bisturí resulta ser un extraño anfibio, ni primitivo ni moderno, que adopta el aspecto de un curioso animal: el ajolote. Roger Bartra pertenece a la llamada Generación del 68. Se formó como antropólogo en la Ciudad de México durante los años sesenta y se doctoró en la Soborna en 1974. De origen catalán, hijo de padres perseguidos por el fascismo español que se exiliaron en México, ha viajado extensamente y hecho investigaciones en diversas partes del mundo, desde Venezuela e Inglaterra hasta Estados Unidos y Francia. Su condición pluricultural le ha permitido escribir libros sobre las mitologías europeas, como Las redes imaginarias del poder político y El salvaje en el espejo, lo mismo que Ensayos de México y el que tiene el lector en sus manos. Todos estos libros han sido publicados también en inglés. Roger Bartra es investigador en la Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, ha dirigido las revistas El machete y La jornada semanal, y ha sido profesor visitante en las universidades norteamericanas de California, Johns Hopkins, Rutgers y Wisconsin. Su libro Oficio mexicano, publicado también por Grijalbo, completa y continúa las reflexiones desarrolladas en La jaula de la melancolía.

Took a moment to build, but the payoff was spectacular. Beautiful writing, though I craved slightly more depth in the lore. Still, undeniably engaging. A solid 4 stars from me.

I thoroughly enjoyed the elegance of it. Beautiful writing, though I craved slightly more depth in the lore. Still, undeniably engaging. A very distinguished novel.

Exceeded all my expectations. It strikes a perfect harmony of dialogue and world-building. Every chapter felt necessary. Worth every moment spent reading.
