Summary

Mediante el particular estilo de Antonio Garci, y en colaboración con su esposa, Citlalli Bayardi, recorreremos esta heroica y divertida aventura de 8-Venado, Garra de Jaguar, gracias a la interpretación que hacen del códice Nuttal.

En este entretenido e informado libro, nuestro héroe atraviesa distintas andanzas, conquistas y obstáculos para convertirse en el unificador del reino de la mixteca.

"Esta que vas a leer es la epopeya de un héroe mexicano del siglo XI. Nació en el corazón de la mixteca, un reino majestuoso de altas y lluviosas montañas. Su nombre, 8-Venado, Garra de Jaguar. De distinguida familia, se convirtió en un guerrero conquistador de amplios territorios, desde la cima de las montañas, hasta los valles que se extendían a sus pies; de los parajes señoriales de la  mixteca baja, hasta las costas de Oaxaca. Cruzó el mar, llegó hasta el Fin del Mundo y alcanzó el Cielo y la Casa del Sol. Y todo lo conquistó".- Antonio Garci

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

“This story is the epic tale of a Mexican hero from the eleventh century. He was born in the heart of the Mixteca, a majestic kingdom of high and rainy mountains. His name, 8-Deer Jaguar Claw. He came from a distinguished family and became a conquering warrior of vast territories, from the peaks of the mountains, to valleys that extended far and wide; from the stately sites of the Mixteca Baja, to the coast of Oaxaca. He crossed seas, reached the End of the World, reached Heaven, and the House of the Sun . . . and he conquered everything.”  -Antonio Garci
