The Paradise in the Other Corner is a novel by Mario Vargas Llosa that tells the story of Flora Tristan and her grandson Paul Gauguin. The novel explores the parallel lives of these two characters, separated by time but united by their search for utopia and freedom. Flora Tristan, a 19th-century feminist and socialist, fights for the rights of workers and women. Paul Gauguin, a post-impressionist painter, seeks inspiration in French Polynesia, escaping bourgeois society and in search of an earthly paradise. The novel examines themes such as rebellion, art, love, and the pursuit of happiness in an imperfect world.
Bernardo Atxaga, pseudonym of Joseba Irazu Garmendia, is a Spanish Basque writer and self-translator.
