After going through everyone's suggestions + seeing what's available here in UK, I've narrowed my choice down to these four books for each stage of my trip in August: - Lima, Arequipa: The Time of the Hero (La Ciudad Y Los Perros), Mario Vargas Llosa - Cuzco, Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu: Deep Rivers (Los Rios Profundos), Jose Maria Arguedas - The Amazon (Madre de Dios reserve): The Green House, Mario Vargas Llosa Bonus to read on my way back home: collection of short stories by Juilo Ramon Ribeyro What do you guys think? Can't wait to explore Peruvian Literature :)
