Summary
In this novel Vargas Llosa introduces us to Mayta, the headman in a Trotskyist attempted coup in 1958. Using testimonies from those who knew him and the subsequent confrontation of this tale, Vargas Llosa leads us to the intimate knowledge of a man, the embodiment of social exclusion, the son of a period of ideological conflicts and political passions, and to the understanding of a turnkey moment in the evolution of Latin America.
