The Green House

Vargas Llosa, Mario

This house in the Amazon is ‘noisy, frivolous, and nocturnal … men and women argue over objects and articles of clothing, and there are confrontations, disputes, violent conversations’ – for la casa verde is a brothel; the author's second novel that brings together innocent victims and corrupt exploiters and abusers; inscribed to Bob Carr 'from his Peruvian friend, wishing him the best', by the author.
