{"product_id":"tyrant-memory","title":"Tyrant Memory","description":"Description for TYRANT MEMORY by Horacio Castellanos Moya: \u003cp\u003e\r\n\r\nThe tyrant of Horacio Castellanos Moya s ambitious new novel is the actual pro-Nazi mystic Maximiliano Hernandez Martinez known as the Warlock who came to power in El Salvador in 1932. An attempted coup in April, 1944, failed, but a general strike in May finally forced him out of office. TYRANT MEMORY takes place during the month between the coup and the strike. Its protagonist, Haydee Aragon, is a well-off woman, whose husband is a political prisoner and whose son, Clemente, after prematurely announcing the dictator s death over national radio during the failed coup, is forced to flee when the very much alive Warlock starts to ruthlessly hunt down his enemies. The novel moves between Haydee s political awakening in diary entries and Clemente s frantic and often hysterically comic efforts to escape capture. Tyrant Memory sharp, grotesque, moving, and often hilariously funny is an unforgettable incarnation of a coun- try s history in the destiny of one family.\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Connies Bookshelf","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42955433574616,"sku":"9780811219174","price":4.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0648\/9099\/4904\/products\/TyrantMemory.jpg?v=1655010990","url":"https:\/\/conniesbookshelf.com\/products\/tyrant-memory","provider":"Connies Bookshelf","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
