El Pez En El Agua by Mario Vargas Llosa

Memorias

A candid memoir that interweaves memories of a turbulent childhood and literary formation with an insider’s account of a bruising presidential campaign in Peru. Against a backdrop of economic collapse and insurgent violence, it explores the seductions and compromises of power, media manipulation, and political intrigue, while reflecting on the solace of writing, family, and personal conviction in the face of public defeat.
