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"
