ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Mario Vargas Llosa creates an intensely woven detective story where tension and suspense travel through history. In a stage dominated by corruption, where prejudice and disparity constitute a country's social reality, truth becomes a confusing array of images in a hallucinatory game of mirrors. Through an ambiance that dazzles and captures the attention, this novel is a faithful reflection of the character of an era and a denunciation of the excesses of power.

"I wrote¿Quien mato a Palomino Molero? in outrage after the murder of a young airman from Talara's military base was red taped by the administration."
