Encuadernación de tapa blanda. Condition: Nuevo. William Caskey (illustrator). En 1947, Christopher Isherwood se embarcó en una travesía de seis meses por Sudamérica. Isherwood evitó deliberadamente leer a profundidad sobre el continente, con la idea de preservar un estilo espontáneo e impresionista. El cóndor y las vacas, catalogado por el autor como uno de sus mejores libros, es el resultado de ese viaje. De inmediato se estableció como una crónica clásica, que realiza el mejor homenaje a los sitios visitados, al narrar sus experiencias sin idealizaciones ni sentimentalismos.
