{"product_id":"aura-9780719081835","title":"Aura","description":"Since its publication in 1962, Carlos Fuentes' novel, 'Aura', remains not merely an object of academic interest but a continuous source of controversy in Mexico. It was the explosive combination of sex and religion that incensed the Ministro de Hacienda, Salvador Abascal, and linked 'Aura' to the recent polemical Mexican film 'El crimen del Padre Amaro'. 'Aura' is preoccupied with the place and persistence of the sacred in modern Mexico rather than simply the secret abuses of institutional Catholicism. This critical edition of the work is accompanied by an introduction and notes on the text.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-14143058\"\u003ePeter Standish\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Durham\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/01\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 53\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.16lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.11d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780719081835\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0719081831\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-LIT\"\u003eLiterary Criticism\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-LIT004100\"\u003eCaribbean \u0026amp; Latin American\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePeter Standish is Professor of Spanish in the Department of Foreign Languages and Literatures, East Carolina University\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University of Durham","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44543106810093,"sku":"9780719081835","price":31.58,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_577cb5d3-813a-412e-850b-8abe6110ddb6.jpg?v=1701537558","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/aura-9780719081835","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
