La desazón suprema: retrato incesante de Fernando Vallejo
(La desazón suprema: retrato incesante de Fernando Vallejo)

It is through La Vierge des tueurs (La Virgen de los Sicarios) and particularly through its adaptation for the big screen by Barbet Schroeder, that we know the Colombian novelist Fernando Vallejo. What one scarcely suspects are the multiple facets of this writer who has been living in Mexico for some time, a great curser of corruption and the “disaster without remedy” that Colombia has become.
