About This Book
"Little Red Riding Hood in the Red Light District is Manlio Argueta's most popular novel in El Salvador. It has gone through eight editions and has been newly revised by the author for this English translation.".
"The story revolves around the relationship between two young lovers, Alfonso and Hormiga, in a time of political upheaval, evoking characters and themes from the classic fairy tale within the wartime environment of El Salvador and its capital, San Salvador. The red light district refers not only to sexual exploitation but also to the political violence Salvadorans suffered in the late seventies."--BOOK JACKET.
