But for Cardinal Guzman, a man tormented by his own private daemons, their stupendous, hedonistic fiestas represent the epicentre of all heresies.Heresies that must be challenged with a horrifying new inquisition destined to climax in a spectacular confrontation... 'An extraordinary feat of imagination... a sensuous, often farcical and ultimately optimistic argument for spiritual sanity' Time Out Review: Just a beautiful read - De Berniere's writing is just a joy to read. This story, the later part of a South American series, melds reality with a hint of the spiritual in what I assume is a Latin American style. His use of native ghosts and of jaguars as supernatural forces of good blends well into the narrative. He just loves his characters and is empathetic to even those who commit grievous crimes without condoning their actions; he accepts them for who they are. The world he creates, although it harbours severe cruelty and great sadness, in a hypothetical South American failed or failing state, is one that seems supremely logical and is always tempered by justice and love. Review: More than just Captain Corelli - Let me lay my cards on the table. I have had more enjoyment reading Louis de Bernieres South American trilogy (of which this is the last) than any other book series. Ever. The juxtapositioning of farcical humour and searing heart ache is like a drug. I burst out loud reading of Don Emmanuel's entertainment of the British Ambassador. I had to stop and control myself when reading of the child deaths at the hands of the Catholic brigands. This is no ordinary author. This is no ordinary trilogy. The manner de Bernieres weaves matter-of-factness with ridiculous magic makes this book series like a new kingdom to explore. Do Jaguars really smell of strawberries and like chocolate? Do itinerate preachers levitate mid sermon? How do you control fifty Spanish Conquistadors that have just been defrosted from 300 years in a glacier? I have no idea where his ideas have come from. Coca leaves, perhaps? Just one important instruction (brought about by the frequent and brief references to previous chapters) - you must read the trilogy in the correct order: The War Of Don Emmanuel's Nether Parts Senor Vivo and the Coca Lord The Troublesome Offspring of Cardinal Guzman ## Features - Louis de Bernieres Novels ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 97,252 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 387 in Satires 458 in Parodies (Books) 651 in Cultural Heritage Fiction | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 260 Reviews | ## Images ![The Troublesome Offspring of Cardinal Guzman: 3 (Latin American Trilogy, 3) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/712RQDAV6WL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Just a beautiful read *by K***R on 24 March 2016* De Berniere's writing is just a joy to read.
