Product Information
A gripping vel about the assassination of Leon Trotsky in Mexico City in 1940In The Man Who Loved Dogs, Leonardo Padura brings a ir sensibility to one of the most fascinating and complex political narratives of the past hundred years: the assassination of Leon Trotsky by Ramon Mercader.The story revolves around Ivan Cardenas Maturell, who in his youth was the great hope of modern Cuban literature until he dared to write a story that was deemed counterrevolutionary. When we meet him years later in Havana, Ivan is a loser: a humbled and defeated man with a quiet, unremarkable life who earns his modest living as a proofreader at a veterinary magazine. One afteron, he meets a mysterious foreigner in the company of two Russian wolfhounds. This is the man who loved dogs, and as the pair grow closer, Ivan begins to understand that his new friend is hiding a terrible secret. Moving seamlessly between Ivan's life in Cuba, Ramon's early years in Spain and France, and Trotsky's long years of exile, The Man Who Loved Dogs is Padura's most ambitious and brilliantly executed vel yet. This is a story about political ideals tested and characters broken, a multilayered epic that effortlessly weaves together three different plot threads Trotsky in exile, Ramon in pursuit, Ivan in frustrated stasis to bring emotional truth to historical fact. A vel whose reach is matched only by its astonishing successes on the page, The Man Who Loved Dogs lays bare the human cost of abstract ideals and the insidious, corrosive effects of life under a repressive political regime.

- a***n (1199)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Mese scorsoAcquisto verificatoShipping is really slow, which is ok if you're happy to wait a month after the advertised estimated arrival date, which I usually am. Communication from seller is poor, the only updates are from Ebay (once the item is finally shipped). Other than that, items arrive well packaged, undamaged and as per the description. 5 stars for product, quality and value but only given 1 star for shipping time and seller communication.

- m***e (4)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Mese scorsoAcquisto verificatoThe item was exactly as described and expected. It was well-packaged and arrived undamaged. The seller shipped the item promptly. There was a delay in delivery due to the Canadian postal strike which was no fault of the seller whatsoever but they were kind enough to help me track the item and even gave a partial refund on the shipping. Great experience with this seller!! Very pleased with the item :)
