La DivisioÌn del Norte pasa por el pueblo del muchacho y eÌste, en un arranque de valentiÌa, se acerca sin dudarlo al mismiÌsimo Centauro. Comienza asiÌ un periplo de aventuras y aprendizajes, en el que ValentiÌn deberaÌ demostrar que ha entrado, aunque a marchas forzadas, en la edad adulta. ¿EncontraraÌ a su progenitor? ¿ComprenderaÌ el valor de alzarse en armas por la causa revolucionaria? ¿CuaÌl seraÌ el detino de la bola en esos uÌltimos diÌas aciagos en el norte del paiÌs? A traveÌs de la mirada entranÌable del propio ValentiÌn, iremos conociendo sus pugnas internas, miedos y arrebatos, asiÌ como a un Pancho Villa maÌs humano, quien, ademaÌs de general, fue un padre para todos aquellos que lucharon por la RevolucioÌn."--Page 4 of the cover. 520 $a "Valentin, at only twelve years old, makes a promise to his mother on her deathbed: to go in search of his father, who, a few years earlier, joined the Pancho Villa's gang. The Northern Division passes through the boy's town and the boy, in a burst of courage, approaches the Centaur himself without hesitation. Thus begins a journey of adventure and wisdom, which Valentine must demonstrate in that he has entered, albeit forcedly, into adulthood. Will he find his father? Will he understand the value of taking up arms for the revolutionary cause? What will be the destiny of the ball in those last fateful days in the northern part of the country? Through the intimate gaze of Valentine himself, we will get to know his internal struggles, fears, and outbursts, as well as a more humane Pancho Villa, who, in addition to being a general, was a father to all those who fought for the Revolution. -- $c Cataloger's translation and interpretation of the Spanish synopsis 546 $a In Spanish. 500 $a "Finalista del Premio de Novela HistoÌrica Grijalbo - Claustro de Sor Juana, 2019"--Cover page 1. 600 10 $a Villa, Pancho, $d 1878-1923 $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Mexico $x History $y Revolution, 1910-1920 $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Violence $z Mexico $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Boys $z Mexico $v Fiction. 650 4 $a Spanish language materials. 655 7 $a Bildungsromans. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Action and adventure fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Novels. $2 lcgft 941 $a 1 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20210804010153.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=41F297C2F4E911EBA186761358ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
