A review by dariuskay
The War of the End of the World by Mario Vargas Llosa

3.0

This is a book that feels long in every section. The first 250 pages are largely introductory, although the initial campaigns to put down the Canudos rebels do happen in the beginning parts. The story and reserved style (and rich imagination) do much to make the book compelling, but ultimately this is very fatiguing.
