The story is based on a late 19th-century rebellion against the newly formed Republic in Brazil. These remarkable passages provide a view into the motivations and ideology of the Counselor, who leads the rebellion, and Galileo Gall, a Scottish political extremist. The former Peruvian presidential candidate says that this novel, his personal favorite, concerns violent modes of communication, which are "the only way in which you can communicate when you are totally unable to communicate ideas."
