The article focuses on the book "A World for Julius," by Alfredo Bryce Echenique, and translated by Dick Gerdes. With a total of six novels to his credit, Alfredo Bryce Echenique is a master storyteller born in Lima in 1939 into an oligarchic family of Scottish descent. Hoping to become a prominent litterateur, he left Peru by steamer in 1964 after simultaneously receiving law and letters degrees, first enrolling in the Sorbonne, then moving to Italy, Greece and Germany before returning to France and settling in Montpellier, where for years he taught Latin American literature and civilization at the University Paul Valery.
