Cautivos

by Ariel Dorfman

Book Overview

This short novel is about confinement, both of the mind and of the body, and therefore also about liberation.

Set in the last years of the 16th century, Cautivos is a meditation on writing, writers, and creativity. Then as now, Islam and Christianity were at loggerheads and women found themselves playing new roles, and imprisonment or worse was society's answer to everything from murder to dissent.
