I Give You My Silence
Mario Vargas Llosa
The final novel from Nobel laureate Mario Vargas Llosa, a playful and powerful love letter to Peruvian culture.
One evening, To?o Azpilcueta, a Peruvian folk music journalist, witnesses a performance that changes his life. To?o becomes obsessed with hearing the virtuoso guitarist Lalo Molfino play again, but the next he hears, Molfino is dead.
So begins a quest to uncover the story of this unforgettable musician. To?o tracks down the priest who rescued Molfino from a rubbish heap and raised him, the musicians who played with him and the girl who claimed to love him. To?o decides that he will write a book that will not only immortalize the hero of the Creole vals but will establish the music he loved as a unifying symbol for his fractured country. But the more To?o writes, the more he struggles to keep control of his story. As his savings dwindle and his paranoia rises, it becomes clear that writing a masterpiece is more complicated and consuming than he had realised.
