The Bridge in The Jungle Bruno Traven

A simple story of Indian Mexican people thru the eyes of a Gringo who was with them for 3 days. They come together in heart and soul as they face the death of a young boy. As news travels during the same night as the tragedy, throughout the jungle settlements, many Indians arrive to console the grieving mother. The community unites in a way that the so-called advanced societies can never achieve. It is a philosophic story rather than political as are most of Trven's novel - to a point. "The Bidge in The Jungle" is regarded by many to be his finest novel. The reader finishes this story with renewed faith and the courage and dignity of human beings. A Collector's Edition.
