Amalia: A Romance of the Argentine, originally serialized while author José Mármol lived in exile in Montevideo, emerged as a symbol of Argentine national identity following the defeat of brutal dictator Juan Manuel de Rosas in 1852. Mármol, a prominent critic of the Rosist regime, crafted this masterful tale of romance and political resistance, elevating the personal to the level of the national while never losing sight of the everyday struggles of dissidents.
Amalia follows the story of two lovers brought together by political repression during the violent regime of caudillo Jaun Manuel de Rosas. Eduardo, a dissident forced into hiding, finds safety at the home of Amalia, a beautiful young woman. Protected by Amalia and her cousin Daniel, Eduardo grows weary of living in constant fear of the Rosist death squads stalking the streets of Buenos Aires and longs for a day when liberty and justice will set him free. Despite their blossoming romance, Eduardo and Amalia know they face mortal danger, and that every decision they make will come with the risk of discovery. Yet, they persevere.
Amalia remains a timeless work of Latin American fiction from a leading figure of the Romantic era. This professionally designed edition of José Mármol's Amalia: A Romance of the Argentine is a classic of Argentine literature reimagined for modern readers.
