Vargas Llosas has a hard act to follow—another five star review for Jordan Goodman's The Devil and Mr Casement

Another five star review for Jordan Goodman's The Devil and Mr Casement: One Man's Struggle for Human Rights in South America's Heart of Darkness, this time from the Independent:

The Devil and Mr Casement is a fine achievement, offering both a rigorous account of atrocities in the Amazon and a balanced portrait of Casement himself. The Nobel Laureate Mario Vargas Llosa's forthcoming novel, The Dream of the Celt, a fictional take on Casement's life, is an intriguing prospect - but this excellent book will be a difficult act to follow.
