Skarmeta has achieved a complex narrative which nonetheless reads simply, with a smoothness that is not at all naive, because beneath the anecdotes are hidden other readings and thus, with intelligence and joy, the story expands and broadens.

The New Southern Gentleman

"Daniel Randolph Deal is a Southern aristocrat, having the required bloodline, but little of the nobility. A man resistant to the folly of ethics, he prefers a selective, self-indulgent morality. He is a confessed hedonist, albeit responsibly so."--Back cover

El mejor narrador chileno de su generación describe en esta novela la revolución de Nicaragua. En esta novela sobre la evolución de Nicaragua, Skármeta convoca las voces de sus protagonistas en los días que preceden a la caída de Somoza. Con humor y precisa complejidad técnica, el autor despliega la vida de guerrilleros, estudiantes, soldados del gobierno, carteros, curas, y desempleados, conduciéndolos a un apocalipsis de fuego y liberación. Las cartas de Leonel desde el frente, las dudas de Agustín en el cuartel, la resignada figura del estratega del gobierno que se sabe derrotado, la violación de Vicky, el ataque a la iglesia y el incendio final, van permitiendo al lector experimentar la vida de un pueblo en un momento de emergencia y de gran importancia para la historia latinoamericana contemporánea. De esta novela se hizo una película, dirigida por Peter Lilienthal, que obtuvo el Bundesfilmpreis de 1980 en Alemania. Reseña: «En La insurrección, el escritor chileno Antonio Skármeta encuentra por fin al protagonista que ha estado buscando toda su vida: un pueblo entero.» Ariel Dorfman
