La vida exagerada de Martín Romaña is a novel by the Peruvian writer Alfredo Bryce Echenique, published in 1981. Under the influence of Hemingway, Martín Romaña leaves Peru for Paris, but there nothing is as in the books of the American. Martín comes across a world full of janitors and perverse dogs, marries a far-left militant and tries, without much luck, to become a model revolutionary, while humorously writing his novel about Latin Americans who survive in a City of Light that has blown its fuses.
Alfredo Marcelo Bryce Echenique was a Peruvian writer. He wrote numerous books and short stories; he is best known for his 1970 work A World for Julius. At the time of his death, he was considered to be the last living representative of the Latin American Boom, although he has also been categorized as being part of post-boom literature.
