Harvest of Two Hundred Suns

This work arises from the need to shout out, from the depths, the painful circumstances of the exploited Indian, as he and she- they themselves live it, shout it, and cry for it in their prayers, full of tears and mystical elevation. On that account, its characters are brutally real since they are a condensation derived from thousands of men, women, old people, and children.
