La neige de l'amiral is a masterful work by Colombian writer Álvaro Mutis, recounting a nightmarish expedition through the Colombian jungle. Told through a recovered journal, the novel is a powerful evocation of human fragility in the face of nature and the inexorable passage of time, offering a desperate vision of a world where every endeavor is doomed to fail. This novel, the first in the 'Adventures and Misadventures of Maqroll the Gaviero' series, was awarded the Prix Médicis Étranger in 1989.
