WINNER OF THE NOBEL PRIZE IN LITERATURE
The action of The Time of the Hero, Nobel Prize-winning author Mario Vargas Llosa's first novel, takes place at the Leoncio Prado Military Academy in Lima, Peru. There, four angry cadets who have formed an inner circle in an attempt to ward off the boredom and stifling confinement of the military academy set off a chain of events that starts with a theft and leads to murder and suicide. The Time of the Hero presents, with great accuracy and power, the cadets' nightmare life: brutal initiation rights, poker in the latrines, drinking contests; and, above all else, the strange military code which, whether broken or followed, can only destroy. When The Time of the Hero was first published in Peru in 1962, it was considered so scandalous that a thousand copies were burned in an official ceremony at the Leoncio Prado Military Academy. That same year, the book received the Biblioteca Breve Prize, an award given to the best work of fiction in the Spanish language. ... A]s with other fine writers, Vargas functions on more than a single level of meaning. - The New York Times

Описание:
3rd edition;
A mystic, comedy Sci-Fi action-adventure sprinkled with the legendary Music of The Beatles.... meet quirky Kalantha Kirby, humble Central Park worker- so busy helping others and engrossed with her sci-fi hobbies and Beatles music and not really realizing what was about to extraordinarily happen to her; After a strange event with her "hand" at work and even far deeper meditation session, Kalantha finds herself immersed in a mangled, dystopian future, or is it a dream? She is hastily greeted by Ringo, a furry canine best friend, and his metaphysical master Olin Cian, who has been tailing her for quite some time in secret. They embark on a comedic, seemingly unplanned, (but not To Olin) dangerous and dire underwater and above heroic adventure. Not too long later they are joined by Cian's distant, Celtic Shaman right-hand man Timothy Ban Piobar, who offers Kalantha more insight into Olin's dark, unknown past. Together, along with The Beatles' amazing music they are swept into facing the task of saving humanity from the evil doings of the "Others", the "Gorm Granna" will this foursome of transcendental Superheroism be able to finish their mission? Is love really all you need? Read on, and find out...
