Martín Caparrós

4.9/5 (11370 ratings)

Description:"Commandant don Faustino Ansay gets up at six o'clock in the morning every day, rain or shine, because he is a methodical man". This methodical man, a soldier sent by Spain to the city of Mendoza, is dismissed, on June 23 1810, by orders of the newly created Junta de Buenos Aires. Nearly a man of 50, he is sent to prison by the Argentine patriots who fight for their independence from the Spanish Kingdom. All these true facts of his own story, along with his own meditations, are narrated by don Faustino Ansay in his memories. He spends six years in jail and, as a result of a deteriorating health, he is transferred to an infirmary in Buenos Aires, from which he escapes and manages to take a boat to Spain. He believes that he is going to deserve honours, but nothing of this happens -he is only given an insignificant bureaucratic post until 1825, the year of his death. Martin Caparrs, by means of a pure and elegant prose, guesses the thoughts, delusions and misadventures of this King's servant. At the same time, he presents the actual historical events with a fascinating picture of Argentina on the verge of its emancipation.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
