«L'Or de Cajamalca» is the historical tale by Jakob Wassermann, published by L'Ecole des Loisirs in paperback (112 pages, in French).
Set during the Spanish conquest of South America, the story follows the monk Domingo de Soira Luce, who in a monastery in Lima records the events surrounding the Inca Atahuallpa and his encounter with the conquerors. Wassermann contrasts two worlds and makes gold the symbol of the conflict between them.
The story originally appeared in 1923, within the collection «Der Geist der Pilger», under the title «Das Gold von Caxamalca».
