Various. "Ucrónica. Rutas alternativas a la realidad"
Ucrónica rutas alternativas a la realidad by VariousMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
My creative alter ego participated in this volume of uchronic stories with a short fiction that reimagines the events in Cajamarca between 1531 and 1533. What would have happened if the Spanish conquistadors had not defeated the Inca army that surrounded Cajamarca during the first meeting between Francisco Pizarro and Inca Atahualpa? What would have happened if Ninan Cuyoche, the son of Inca Huayna Cápac destined to be Sapa Inca, had not died of smallpox and had faced Pizarro and his men? What would Peru be like today if none of this had happened? The result of this uchronic imagination can be found in my story entitled "Ninan Cuyoche y sus hermanos" ("Ninan Cuyoche and his brothers" pp. 75-86) included in this collection.
