The cotton-pickers

The background of The Cotton-Pickers, set in Mexico in the 1920s, is the struggle of the emerging trade unions to end the exploitation of hungry laborers. Gales, a laconic American drifter, turns his hand for anything for a meal and a flea-bitten bunk - he works on a cotton plantation, in an oil field, in a bakery, as a cowboy for a North American ranch owner. But he hates exploitation, so he leaves behind him a trail of rebellion. Underlying this lively and amusing tale of his adventures is a powerful study of social injustice, and most of all a testament to the strength of human courage and dignity - one of Traven's favorite themes.

  • "Několik bílých i barevných chudáků putuje pod žhavým mexickým nebem za chlebem. Prožívají pestrá dobrodružství, vylíčená až naturalisticky, ale přesvědčivě a s velikým smyslem pro humor. S porozuměním dovede Traven vyhmátnouti lidský profil těch nejubožejších, proletářských trampů a prostitutek. Ukazuje na ostrý boj mezi vykořisťovanými a vykořisťovateli a všechny jeho sympatie patří utlačovaným."
