This is the book about romanticism, deep class separation, politics and honesty in the Chile of 1850, The hero shows all the points of his flawless character in the context of a full ethics approach to relationships, It will make an spectacular gift for teens and persons of teen heart because it included a passionate love story with optimistic message for all.

Additionally the political events that form part of the novel are real, and will provide a deep knowledge of political forces in a just-born Country.

I read it when I was teen, I reread for my fifty birthday, always with watery of eyes.....

La literatura chilena es excelente, recuerdo este libro con nostalgia ... volveria a leerlo si lo tuviera en mis manos y tuviese tiempo! Os lo recomiendo desde la primera página os cautivará.

Martin Rivas, the book. It is a good book. It maybe challenging to get the full social and political environment in which it is set for the english reader. A soup opera was produced in Chile based on Martin Rivas, with the same name. Separating one from the other, the soup opera, done professionally and with stupendous actors and actresses, just went too far from the reality of the book. Parts of the scenes simply stupid. But the book is good, entertaining, easy to read.
