Death in the Andes
Llosa Mario Vargas
In an isolated
community in the Peruvian Andes, a series of mysterious disappearances has
occurred. Army corporal Lituma and his deputy Tomás believe the Shining Path
guerrillas are responsible, but the townspeople have their own ideas about the
forces that claimed the bodies of the missing men. This riveting novel is
filled with unforgettable characters, among them disenfranchised Indians,
eccentric local folk, and a couple performing strange cannibalistic sacrifices.
As the investigation progresses, Tomás entertains Lituma with the surreal tale
of a precarious love affair.
Death in the
Andes is both a fascinating detective novel and an insightful political
allegory. Mario Vargas Llosa offers a panoramic view of Peruvian society, from the
recent social upheaval to the cultural influences in its past.
