Pressestimmen
"Traven's philosophical anarchism, his disengagement, his scorn for regimentation and material goods and his love of individual liberty and the primitive past could, conceivably, command as much reverence form the new generation as does Henry David Thoreau."--William Weber Johnson, Los Angeles Times
"He tells his story better than the best storytellers; delves deeper into characters than most so-called psychological writers. All the virility, terseness and tension that Hemingway worked so hard for...seem to be Traven's by birthright."--John Anthony West, Books and Bookmen

Kurzbeschreibung
"The Treasure of Sierra Madre is the literary masterpiece for America's pop mythology of the Wild West. A savagely ironic novel, it follows the rugged adventure of three Americans hunting for gold in the mountains of Mexico who find themselves caught in a morality tale of greed and betrayal. Originally published in 1935, the book has captivated millions of readers, including the director John Huston, who immortalized it in his 1948 film starring Humphrey Bogart. This is a timeless story that has much to teach us, for, as we all know, finding the treasure is always secondary to the hunt.

What is there to say about this classic? Everything about it, from the prose to the plot, is sheer brilliance and delight. Put me down as a Traven fanatic.

Though it was written more than 70 years ago, Traven's Treasure of Sierra Madre holds up beautifully. Traven was a superlative storyteller--unpretentious, forceful, and possessed of a sophisticated political awareness that puts most contemporary writers to shame. John Huston's '48 film version is extremely good but leaves out Traven's bitter anti-clericism, a key element in the novel. More than a great adventure story, Sierra Madre is a powerful allegory about greed and its deadly allure.

I don't read many westerns because they are just not my main interest when it comes to a book catagory. However, I did read this book and was extremely impressed. This book is a five star classic! If your like me and don't read many westerns, then this would be the one to read.
Once again, a true western classic!
