El amante uruguayo is a fascinating true story that explores the life of Enrique Amorim, a charming Uruguayan and almost forgotten writer, and his relationship with Federico García Lorca. Set against a backdrop of jealousy, envy, and loyalty in the art scene from 1920 to 1960, Santiago Roncagliolo investigates whether Amorim took possession of García Lorca's corpse and whether the poet's body lies behind a monument in Salto, Uruguay. Through an investigation on both sides of the Atlantic, Roncagliolo seeks to answer these questions, revealing truths about Neruda, Aragon, and Quiroga, and clearing up doubts about Picasso, Chaplin, and Borges.
Santiago Rafael Roncagliolo Lohmann is a Peruvian writer, screenwriter, translator and journalist. He has written five novels about fear. He is also author of a trilogy of non-fiction books on Latin America during the twentieth century.
