New English translation of all 47 chapters.
Includes Francisco Sosa's historical preface to the 1891 edition.
Includes five concise explanatory notes.

In the courtyards of a provincial Mexican town, Carmen is known as La Calandria-the songbird. Orphaned and dependent on the kindness of others, she dreams of a life larger than the one her neighbours expect for her.

Gabriel, a young cabinetmaker, offers an earnest love. Alberto Rosas offers elegance, fascination and the promise of another world. Between them, Carmen confronts desires and divisions that neither a beautiful voice nor a generous heart can easily overcome.

Rafael Delgado's novel brings the streets, workshops and landscapes of nineteenth-century Veracruz into vivid life. Intimate, sharply observant and compassionate, it explores the cost of social ambition and the fragile bonds that hold a community together.
