“Old Gringo” by Carlos Fuentes

“A dazzling Mexican bestseller in the United States, Old Gringo (1985) is one of the most famous novels by Carlos Fuentes, a central figure in Mexican narrative and essay writing. In Old Gringo Fuentes captures the turbulent years of the revolutionary struggle in Mexico, when an old skeptical American writer, inextricably bitter, who cannot resign himself to waiting for death due to illness or accident, decides to cross the border of his country in search of a worthy death.”
