Elizabeth Hampsten, translation of Carlos Liscano, Truck of Fools [El furgón de los locos]

Abstract

Liscano is a professional writer who, in addition to his work as a journalist, has published novels, short stories, poems and a dramatic monologue. His testimonio is thus somewhat atypical in that it is written by the author alone, and reflects an erudite—albeit also politically Left—perspective.
