The Time of the Hero has been acclaimed by critics around the world
as one of the outstanding Spanish novels of recent decades. In the
author's native Peru, this powerful social satire so outraged the
authorities that a thousand copies were publicly burned. The novel
is set in Leoncio Prado Military Academy in Lima, where a group of
cadets attempt to break out of the vicious round of sadistic
ragging, military discipline, confinement and boredom. But their
pranks set off a cycle of betrayal, murder and revenge which
jeopardizes the entire military hierarchy. 'A work of undeniable
power and skill.' Sunday Telegraph
