Why does Urania Cabral return to her island in the early 1990s, despite having sworn never to set foot there again? Why has she been terrified of life ever since her teenage years? And why has she never known love? In *The Feast of the Goat*, this great novel, first published in 2000, Mario Vargas Llosa creates a vast and captivating panorama in which history intertwines with the stories of ordinary people, and real figures from the past—such as General Trujillo, who tortured 3,000,000 people without suspecting his own “Machiavellian” downfall—cross paths with the fictional characters of the narrative. The book was hailed as an impressive return by the Peruvian author to the political novel. With brilliant dramatic flair, a relentless pace, and an incomparable style, the future Nobel laureate unfolds a sweeping, chilling warning and a masterful indictment of all forms of power that survive by forging a path through mountains of corpses. Critics around the world hailed *The Feast of the Goat* as the undisputed masterpiece of Vargas Llosa’s mature literary period.
