I analyze this betrayal of the revolution as depicted in journalistic documents of the time (Reed, Flores Magón), testimonies (most notably Pedro Martínez, Juan Pérez Jolote), as well as the huge literary production about the revolution, especially the novels (Azuela, Campobello, Castellanos, Romero, Rulfo). |
