Description
Download When the Owl Cries, Paul Bartlett’s highly-praised and commemorative novel to the Mexican Revolution and the hacienda lifestyle which disappeared because of it.
Paul Bartlett was an artist and author of many short stories, novels, and non-fiction works. After moving to Mexico during WWII, Bartlett found an interest in visiting the vanishing haciendas throughout the country. In When the Owl Cries, Bartlett uses his explorations to express an evocative and compelling narrative that gives the reader a first-hand experience on hacienda life during its demise.
Described by the Library Journal as “A Gone With the Wind of Mexico,” When the Owl Cries follows the protagonist Don Raul Medina, the heir to his dying father’s hacienda, through the complications of his estranged marriage, his love for the neighboring hacendada, Lucienne, and the hardships brought on by the Revolution.
Reviewer Charles Poore of the New York Times said, “When the Owl Cries is a novel rich in pictorially vivid reading. As you turn the pages, you ask, What next?...But what gives the story stature as a work of art is that Bartlett has been at pains to populate it with believable characters who are stirred by intensely personal concerns."
