Edmundo Paz Soldán and Giacomo Roncagliolo in conversation with Patricia del Río
Literary dystopias
Venue: Centro Cultural Peruano Norteamericano (auditorio)
Two authors will talk about literature and dystopias with Patricia del Río. Edmundo Paz Soldán (Bolivia), an award-winning writer and academic, presents Área protegida, a dark novel about seeking for unexpected solutions, political polarisation, and the disasters that are awaiting Earth. The author and musician Giacomo Roncagliolo (Peru) published stories and poems in the fanzine Morfina between 2011 and 2013. In 2017 he was shortlisted for the Clarín Novel Prize for Ámok. His recent novel, El fantástico sueño de aniquilar esto, is a disturbing thriller that explores the addictive power of virtual sexuality and its sinister influence on contemporary desire.
