In 'Tierra virgen', Alberto Vázquez-Figueroa presents the story of a former Vietnam combatant who seeks refuge in the Amazon rainforest, integrating into the indigenous community of the Yubani. Through his coexistence, the protagonist understands the harmony and natural logic of their lifestyle, contrasting with the threat posed by the arrival of white engineers. These, with the intention of building a road through their lands, endanger the existence of the Yubani, despite the treaties that protect their territory. The novel explores the clash between civilization and nature, and the devastating effects of Western contact on ancestral cultures.
