«Vinieron las lluvias» is the historical novel by Louis Bromfield, published by Círculo de Lectores in hardback (619 pages, in Spanish).
The novel is set in India: the arrival of the rains alters the lives of a group of characters and unleashes personal and social tensions. The narrative, in a classic style, combines individual drama with a look at the society of its time.
The work was originally published in 1937 under the title The Rains Came. The novel gave rise to a film starring Tyrone Power and Myrna Loy.
For readers of historical novels and classics of twentieth-century American literature.
Louis Bromfield was an American writer and conservationist. A bestselling novelist in the 1920s, he reinvented himself as a farmer in the late 1930s and became one of the earliest proponents of sustainable and organic agriculture in the United States. He won the Pulitzer Prize for the Novel in 1927 for Early Autumn, founded the experimental Malabar Farm near Mansfield, Ohio, and played an important role in the early environmental movement.
