Con lo stile e il linguaggio eloquente che gli hanno fatto guadagnare il premio Nobel per la letteratura, Marquez tesse una storia sbalorditiva di gloria e disperazione. Sia la storia vera che l'immaginazione di Marquez ci fanno entrare nel mondo di Simon Bolivar, liberatore del Sud America, in tutta la sua umanità, buona e cattiva. Bolivar cacciò gli spagnoli dal Sud America, affrontò il tradimento dei suoi stessi compatrioti. Un tempo acclamato come un eroe, ora è disprezzato e vilipeso e, combattendo i suoi demoni, si rifiuta di morire in silenzio. Ci viene dato uno scorcio del genio e delle debolezze dell'uomo dietro la leggenda, mentre lo accompagniamo nel suo ultimo viaggio, accompagnato solo dai fedeli resti del suo un tempo grande esercito.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. General Simon Bolivar, 'the Liberator' of five South American countries, takes a last melancholy journey down the Magdalena River, revisiting cities along its shores, and reliving the triumphs, passions and betrayals of his life. Infinitely charming, prodigiously successful in love, war and politics, he still dances with such enthusiasm and skill that those watching cannot believe he is ill. Aflame with memories of the power that he commanded and the dream of continental unity that eluded him, he is a moving exemplar of how much can be won - and lost - in a life.With the style and eloquent language that earned him the Nobel prize for literature, Marquez weaves a stunning story of glory and despair. Both real history and Marquez' imagination let us enter the world of Simon Bolivar, Liberator of South America, in all his humanity - good and evil. Bolivar drove the Spanish out of South America, dealt with treachery from his own compatriots. Once hailed as a hero, he is now scorned and reviled, and fighting his own demons, he refuses to die quietly. We are given a glimpse of the genius and foibles of the man behind the legend, as we accompany him on his last journey, accompanied only by the loyal remants of his once great army. With the style and eloquent language that earned him the Nobel prize for literature, Marquez weaves a stunning story of glory and despair. Both real history and Marquez' imagination let us enter the world of Simon Bolivar, Liberator of South America, in all his humanity - good and evil.
