Graham Greene, uno de los novelistas m???s importantes en lengua inglesa, celebr??? su 80 aniversario con la publicaci???n de este libro: un relato vivo, fuerte y chispeante sobre su amistad con Omar Torrijos, presidente de Panam??? de 1968 a 1981, fallecido en un extra???o accidente de aviaci???n. ???En agosto de 1981 ten???a preparada la maleta para mi quinta visita a Panam??? cuando me enter??? por tel???fono de la muerte del general Omar Torrijos Herrera, mi amigo y anfitri???n. En ese momento se me ocurri??? escribir una especie de peque???o homenaje a un pol???tico inspirador en un per???odo vital de Latinoam???rica y de la historia de su pa???s, y a una inusual y duradera amistad???. Aunque el propio Greene afirm??? que quiso escribir unas memorias y termin??? escribiendo ???una mezcla de cosas bastante insatisfactorias???, la admiraci???n y el afecto que sent???a por el General quedan reflejados sinceramente en unas p???ginas llenas de sabrosas an???cdotas y de inteligentes an???lisis sobre la situaci???n en Centroam???rica y sobre el papel del l???der paname???o. Omar Torrijos --explica Greene-- quer???a una Centroam???rica socialdem???crata, independiente de Estados Unidos, pero que no supusiera una amenaza para su colosal vecino. Su sue???o no pudo convertirse en realidad.
