Conversation in the Cathedral

"Conversation in the Cathedral takes place in 1950s Peru during the dictatorship of Manuel A. Odria. Over beers and a sea of freely spoken words, the conversation flows between two individuals, Santiago and Ambrosia, who talk of their tormented lives and of the overall degradation and frustration that has slowly taken over their town. Through a complicated web of secrets and historical references, Mario Vargas Llosa analyzes the mental and moral mechanisms that govern power and the people behind it."--BOOK JACKET.Vargas Llosa, Mario is the author of 'Conversation in the Cathedral' with ISBN 9780374518158 and ISBN 0374518157.
