Synopsis "La Casa Verde (in Spanish)"

Novela ejemplar en la historia del boom latinoamericano, La Casa Verde (1965) es una experiencia ineludible para todo aquel que quiera conocer en profundidad la obra narrativa de Mario Vargas Llosa. La novela ocurre en dos lugares muy alejados entre sí, Piura, en el desierto del litoral peruano, y Santa María de Nieva, una factoría y misión religiosa perdida en el corazón de la Amazonía. Símbolo de la historia es la mítica casa de placer que don Anselmo, el forastero, erige en las afueras de Piura. La Casa Verde recibió al año siguiente de su publicación el Premio de la Crítica y, en 1967, el Premio Internacional de Literatura Rómulo Gallegos a la mejor novela en lengua española.

Jorge Mario Pedro Vargas Llosa (Arequipa, March 28, 1936), known as Mario Vargas Llosa, 1st Marquis of Vargas Llosa, is a Peruvian writer who also holds Spanish nationality since 1993 and Dominican nationality since June 2022. Considered one of the most important contemporary novelists and essayists, his works have received numerous awards, including the Nobel Prize in Literature 2010, the Cervantes Prize 1994 —considered the most important in the Spanish language—, the Prince of Asturias Award for Literature 1986, the Biblioteca Breve Prize 1962, the Rómulo Gallegos Prize 1967, and the Planeta Prize 1993, among others. Alongside Gabriel García Márquez, Julio Cortázar, and Carlos Fuentes, he is one of the central figures of the Latin American boom

He rose to fame in the 1960s with novels such as The Time of the Hero (1963), The Green House (1966), and Conversation in the Cathedral (1969). He continued to prolifically cultivate various literary genres, such as essays, articles, and theater. Several of his works have been adapted into films and television. Most of his novels are set in Peru and explore his views on Peruvian society; however, in The War of the End of the World (1981), The Feast of the Goat (2000), and The Dream of the Celt (2010) he sets his plots in other countries.

Excelente el relato de la selva, sus lugares, sus personajes o el sinfín de sabrosos detalles. No así la trama. Decepcionante.

Gran libro. Recomiendo leer primero La ciudad y los perros y luego éste, para posteriormente ir por Conversación en la catedral.
