A review by kpjayan
The Dream of the Celt by Mario Vargas Llosa

3.0

Though this do not stand among his best books, it is better than the previous one. Despite the uneven narrative towards the end, it still holds pretty well as a strong powerful tale. The narratives technique is brilliant often moving between the present ( 1916 at Pentonville Jail) to the respective continents. The ease of shifting of the narrative space is amazing. The language is fluid and poetic at many places. Again, not amongst his best, good nonetheless.
