<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>The great novel of the Philippines</b> <p/>In more than a century since its appearance, José Rizal's<i> Noli Me Tangere</i> has become widely known as the great novel of the Philippines. A passionate love story set against the ugly political backdrop of repression, torture, and murder, The Noli, as it is called in the Philippines, was the first major artistic manifestation of Asian resistance to European colonialism, and Rizal became a guiding conscience--and martyr--for the revolution that would subsequently rise up in the Spanish province. <p/>For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,700 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>A beautiful new translation... Rizal's rich, moving novel...[is] perhaps the most important novel in Philippine literature. --<b>Jessica Hagedorn</b><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>José Rizal</b> (1861-1896) is known as the hero of the Philippines and the greatest champion of Filipino nationalism and independence. He angered the Spanish authorities with<i> Noli Me Tangere</i> and its sequel and was executed. <p/><b>Harold Augenbraum </b>has published seven books on Latino literature of the United States, translated Alvar Núñez Cabeza de Vaca's <i>Chronicle of the Narváez Expedition</i>, the Filipino novelist José Rizal's <i>Noli Me Tangere</i> and <i>El Filibusterismo</i> for Penguin Classics, and with Ilan Stavans, the forthcoming <i>The Plain in Flames</i> by Juan Rulfo.
