This edition brings together the two parts of José Hernández's narrative poem, 'El gaucho Martín Fierro' and 'La vuelta de Martín Fierro', two fundamental works of Argentine gaucho literature. The story follows Martín Fierro, a gaucho who is recruited to serve on the border and who, after suffering injustices and hardships, becomes an outlaw. The second part narrates his return and reunion with his children, offering a reflection on life, justice, and the identity of the gaucho.
José Hernández was an Argentine journalist, poet, and politician best known as the author of the epic poem Martín Fierro. In his tribute, his birthday is celebrated in Argentina as a national holiday, called Tradition Day.
