Juvenilia

This autobiographical novel portrays life in the famous Colegio Nacional of Buenos Aires, where the individuals who would lead Argentina during the nineteenth century developed alongside those who would later be considered the losers of their generation. As soon as it was published in 1884, this novel became a timeless Latin American literary classic thanks to its difficult simplicity and intimacy, and to its portrayal of the first generation of Latin Americans who were fully aware of their independence from Spain."Esta novela autobiografica refleja la vida en el famoso Colegio Nacional de Buenos Aires, donde se formaria tanto la clase politica que dirigio a Argentina durante el siglo XIX como aquellos que mas tarde serian considerados los perdedores de su generacion.
