«Le dedico mi silencio» is the novel by Mario Vargas Llosa published by Debolsillo in paperback (312 pages, in Spanish).
Toño Azpilcueta, a Peruvian teacher passionate about criolla music, receives an invitation to listen to an unknown guitarist named Lalo Molfino. That encounter confirms his intuitions about the transformative power of Peruvian waltzes, marineras and polkas: music capable of breaking down racial prejudices and uniting a country fractured by the violence of Shining Path. Azpilcueta investigates the life of the elusive musician and plans a book that develops that social utopia through art.
The author was a Nobel Prize in Literature laureate. It belongs to the Contemporánea collection from Debolsillo.
For readers of contemporary Latin American literature and followers of Vargas Llosa's narrative.
Jorge Mario Pedro Vargas Llosa, 1st Marquess of Vargas Llosa was a Peruvian novelist, journalist, essayist, and politician. Vargas Llosa was one of the most significant Latin American novelists and essayists and one of the leading writers of his generation. Some critics consider him to have had a more substantial international impact and worldwide audience than any other writer of the Latin American Boom. In 2010, he won the Nobel Prize in Literature for "his cartography of structures of power and his trenchant images of the individual's resistance, revolt, and defeat".
