Dona Barbara

Dona Barbara

Romulo Gallegos

"Doña Bárbara" is a powerful story about the conflict between a cruel, instinctive world and the ideals of civilization, told through striking characters and a rich depiction of the Latin American landscape.

In this novel, Gallegos managed to show the great disproportions that exist in the economic and spiritual life of Venezuela: on the one hand, developed cities and high civilization, on the other hand, extreme primitivism, backwardness, superstition of people who live in rich, vast, wild regions.
