Bråutgitt 1970 da verden var enklere å forstå
enn tilrådelig, og en Nobel-vinner durte inn.
Auto-oversatt omtale hentet fra Goodreads:
This book is more political statement than novel.
There are anti-capitalist speeches and the author's point
of view becomes very clear very quickly : the US is bad
and should stay out of Guatemala's affairs,
its influence spreading like a disease and contaminating
the minds of the locals.
Beyond that, there is a heavy-handed plot and protagonists
who are only there to carry the message.
Character depth or even development would only hinder this.
Enlightening as a historical document, but the wrong choice
if you want to be entertained: And it is in this context
that the awarding of the Nobel Prize for Literature makes sense.
