Three Latin American writers quote, dissect and review this character in a cultural critique that combines analysis with humor and a relentless self-criticism.
Editorial Reviews
Review
Deeply iconoclastic…. It is a valuable work of historical conservation…it succeeds admirably.– “The New Criterion”
Three Latin Americans team up to shred the slavish political correctness that they see dominating Latin American elites…. Exaggerated, even unfair at times, this book nevertheless provides a rollicking good read.– “Foreign Affairs”
