The story of another dictator from Latin America, except in this novel he is an educated, enlightened dictator who befriends an academic, a poet, and a writer in Paris, attends opera performances, and decorates his palace with artistic paintings. But despite his “high culture,” he is corrupt and corrupt. He does everything to remain in power, plotting conspiracies and drawing plays, because he knows that without the throne he is worth nothing.
Carpentier wanted the title of his novel, “The Discourse of the Method,” to be compatible with the title of Descartes’ book: “The Discourse of the Method.” While the philosopher lays down his theory of the method with his hands in cold water, its application appears here hot and burning, poisoned with iron, blood, and fire. The Cuban writer addresses the personality of the tyrant from the inside, contemplating his psyche, entering into the recesses of his mind, with writing that is bold in its conceptions, rich in its fertile details, and innovative in its techniques. List it.

Life is a drama, and drama is a drama within this drama, and most of it talks about this drama that emerges from it, and the process of acting is the enemy of this drama. The more we are honest in presenting this drama, and the more we are spontaneous, the more we seem real, and the exact opposite is true. When you look like you are acting, you will be closer to failure, and farther away from the audience’s love. Even a clown must clown with sincerity and spontaneity that makes him appear real. Our example is Charlie Chaplin, who used clown tools in all his roles that people know, and the audience interacted with the humanitarian issues that he raised and sympathized with them. .
We all know that what is presented on the screen are nothing but events that have no basis, so we think, but why do we follow them if we believe that? We follow it because we are in fact the heroes of this drama: its author, director, actor, and the rest of its makers speak in our name, act for us, and represent us at the same time, and when we follow them we are watching ourselves, or details from it.
This collection presents a group of stories that attempt to approach the worlds of drama in one way or another, in writing and acting.
