The Dream of the Celt
Roger Casement waits in Pentonville prison for execution as he recalls his investigations of atrocities in the Congo and the Putumayo, and his turn to Irish nationalism. His reports and his diaries are the stakes of his last appeals. Vargas Llosa's biographical novel returns to his fascination with rubber-boom Peru and appeared in the year he won the Nobel Prize.
