Description:
Gac-Artigas creates a Latin American Quixote who travels in a white 36-tons truck as his Sancho (Press Agency EFE) “Gac-Artigas engages in dialogue with diverse literary voices that . . . reflect on the meta-reality of literature, whether in theatrical, narrative, or poetic form: Shakespeare, Neruda, Brecht, Dante, Cervantes, Joyce, Homer. . . We readers rise and are born with him, as the narrator invokes Neruda, who in turn invoked the vigorous Incan people in Heights of Machu Picchu.” Moisés Park, Revista de la Academia Norteamericana de la Lengua Española, Vol. V, 20 September 2016). “... the lyricism and different levels of interpretation found in this marvelous journey to the interior of the American continent. . . of the theater. . . [and] of the mind of this actor and witness throughout his journey across the century. . . capture the reader's desire to immerse himself in the story so as to discover, along with the protagonist, the brutality and beauty of a century that cannot leave us unmoved.” (Resonancias.org, 3 January 2016).
