El recurso del método es una novela del escritor cubano Alejo Carpentier, publicada en 1974. La obra narra la historia de un dictador latinoamericano exiliado en Europa, que añora su tierra y se enfrenta a la modernidad y al choque cultural. A través de una prosa rica y barroca, Carpentier explora temas como el poder, la identidad, la nostalgia y la relación entre Europa y América Latina. La novela es una crítica a los regímenes dictatoriales y una reflexión sobre la historia y la cultura latinoamericana.
Alejo Carpentier y Valmont was a Cuban novelist, essayist, and musicologist who greatly influenced Latin American literature during its famous "boom" period. Born in Lausanne, Switzerland, of French and Russian parentage, Carpentier grew up in Havana, Cuba, and despite his European birthplace, he strongly identified as Cuban throughout his life. He traveled extensively, particularly in France, and to South America and Mexico, where he met prominent members of the Latin American cultural and artistic community. Carpentier took a keen interest in Latin American politics and often aligned himself with revolutionary movements, such as Fidel Castro's Communist Revolution in Cuba in the mid-20th century. Carpentier was jailed and exiled for his leftist political philosophies.
