In The Call of the Tribe, Mario Vargas Llosa surveys the readings
that have shaped the way he thinks and has viewed the world over
the past fifty years. The Nobel Laureate maps out the liberal
thinkers who helped him develop a new body of ideas after the great
ideological traumas of his disenchantment with the Cuban Revolution
and departure from the ideas of Jean-Paul Sartre, the author who
most inspired Vargas Llosa in his youth. Writers like Adam Smith,
Friedrich A.Hayek, Karl Popper and Isaiah Berlin helped the author
navigate through these uneasy years of intellectual formation. They
showed him another school of thought that placed the individual
before the tribe, nation, class or party, and defended freedom of
expression as a fundamental value for the exercise of democracy.
The Call of the Tribe documents Vargas Llosa's engagement with
their work and charts the evolution of his personal and
philosophical ideology.Mario Vargas Llosa is one of the world's
greatest living novelists, but, as Clive James wrote in Cultural
Amnesia, his 'true strength' is 'undoubtedly in the essay'.
