Critic Reviews
“Three Latin Americans team up to shred the slavish political correctness that they see dominating Latin American elites…. Exaggerated, even unfair at times, this book nevertheless provides a rollicking good read.”
Foreign Affairs
Deeply iconoclastic…. It is a valuable work of historical conservation…it succeeds admirably. The New Criterion
