Book excerpt: Esta obra tem como tema a invasão da Guatemala por forças mercenárias a serviço dos interesses imperialistas da empresa estadunidense American Fruit Company, a La Frutera. Week-end na Guatemala' descreve essa invasão, ocorrida em 1954, quando aquele pequeno país tentava estabelecer um projeto popular. O imperialismo estadunidense, não querendo intervir diretamente, promoveu o recrutamento em massa da escória social em vários países latino-americanos, assolados pelo desemprego e pela miséria, para formar um exército de mercenários, financiado pelo próprio governo estadunidense e pela American Fruit. A elite econômica e setores da pequena burguesia guatemalteca forneceram a base social de sustentação interna da agressão. Resultado - milhares de crianças, homens e mulheres, jovens e idosos assassinados, o projeto popular destruído, o país invadido, o povo humilhado.

Download or read book Harsh Times written by Mario Vargas Llosa and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2021-11-23 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The true story of Guatemala’s political turmoil of the 1950s as only a master of fiction can tell it Guatemala, 1954. The military coup perpetrated by Carlos Castillo Armas and supported by the CIA topples the government of Jacobo Árbenz. Behind this violent act is a lie passed off as truth, which forever changes the development of Latin America: the accusation by the Eisenhower administration that Árbenz encouraged the spread of Soviet Communism in the Americas. Harsh Times is a story of international conspiracies and conflicting interests in the time of the Cold War, the echoes of which are still felt today. In this thrilling novel, Mario Vargas Llosa fuses reality with two fictions: that of the narrator, who freely re-creates characters and situations, and the one designed by those who would control the politics and the economy of a continent by manipulating its history. Harsh Times is a gripping, revealing novel that directly confronts recent history. No one is better suited to tell this riveting story than Vargas Llosa, and there is no form better for it than his deeply textured fiction. Not since The Feast of the Goat, his classic novel of the downfall of Trujillo’s regime in the Dominican Republic, has Vargas Llosa combined politics, characters, and suspense so unforgettably.
