Agustín Yáñez probes the actions of people caught in life's currents, enthralling his readers with mounting dramatic tension as he shows that no power can forge saints from the human masses, that any attempt to do so, in fact, often has exactly the opposite result. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Yáñez brings to his work a deep understanding of people--his people--and he illuminates a great truth--that no one, anywhere, seems very strange when we understand the environment that has produced him or her. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAgustín Yáñez (1904-1980), recognized as one of Mexico's greatest novelists, was long a leading figure in the cultural and political life of his country.
