About the Book

Felicito Yanaque es un hombre de 55 anos, delgado y pequeno, de origen humilde pero que ha logrado consolidar una solida empresa de transporte en la ciudad de Piura, al norte del Peru. Esta felizmente casado con Gertrudis y tiene dos hijos (Miguel y Tiburcio); ademas tiene una amante, Mabel. Una manana encuentra una nota en la puerta de su casa, en la que le exigen el pago de $500 al mes a cambio de "proteccion" para el, su familia y su negocio. Denuncia la extorsion ante la policia (por cierto, quien la recibe es el sargento Lituma, personaje de anteriores novelas de Vargas Llosa: Quien mato a Palomino Morero? Y Lituma en Los Andes). Ante la poca atencion de esta, y contrariando las recomendaciones de una vidente, Felicito decide enfrentar a los chantajistas, publicando un aviso en el diario local de mayor circulacion. Aunque esto le gana el respeto de la policia, le complica seriamente su vida, pues aquellos comienzan con una serie de actos de violencia en contra de su empresa y de sus allegados. Contactese con personas interesadas en sus productos. Empiece ahora! Sin embargo, Felicito se muestra firme en su determinacion de no ceder, teniendo presente el consejo que le dio su padre antes de morir, de no dejarse pisotear por nadie. A su vez, Ismael Carrera es un importante y rico empresario de Lima. Viudo y con dos hijos (Miki y Escobita). Su mas cercano colaborador es Don Rigoberto, que tambien ha sido el personaje central de dos novelas anteriores de Vargas Llosa (Elogio de la madrastra y Los cuadernos de Don Rigoberto). Ante la actitud egoista de sus hijos, que solo esperan su muerte para disfrutar de la herencia -de hecho la celebraron anticipadamente- trama una especie de retaliacion. Decide casarse con su sirvienta, Armida y emprender un largo y costoso viaje de bodas. A partir de alli, ambos hijos tratan de anular dicho matrimonio y de incapacitar juridicamente a Ismael. Don Rigoberto, quien es participe clave en la lucha de Ismael para impedirlo, va contandole a su esposa, Lucrecia, cada noche, el devenir de los acontecimientos, lo que sirve tambien para avivar la pasion sexual algo desenfrenada de la pareja. Contar como se entrelazan ambas historias y cual es el final de cada una seria arruinar la lectura de El heroe discreto, de Mario Vargas Llosa, pues los lectores querran descubrir por si mismos su desenlace."
