This well-preserved copy of “El sueño del celta” by Mario Vargas Llosa offers a captivating exploration of the life and legacy of Roger Casement, the controversial Irish nationalist and human rights activist. Published in 2010, this meticulously researched novel delves into the complex psyche of Casement, whose journey from British consul to ardent advocate for Irish independence and critic of colonial atrocities in the Congo and Amazon regions made him a polarizing figure. Vargas Llosa’s masterful storytelling brings to life the tumultuous early 20th century, interweaving historical events with Casement’s personal struggles and inner turmoil. This critically acclaimed work not only sheds light on a pivotal figure in Irish history but also examines themes of identity, morality, and the human condition with Vargas Llosa’s signature literary depth and insight.
