An old man leaves his house to protest the closing of the last cinemas in a Madrid of the future. It is one more change in a chain that he experiences as decadence. A worse world. His body fails him, from his memory to his intestine. When he wants to go back he does not remember where his house is and during those hours he walks around the city and reviews his life, criticizes the latest developments in art and literature, makes fun of vegetarianism.
In this story, whose impact increased when Mario Vargas Llosa ended his last relationship, the character regrets having left Carmencita, his lifelong partner, because of "a love of the dick, not of the heart." "The Winds" shows a full Vargas Llosa, critical, sharp, caustic. The Nobel Prize winner who won millions of readers still has a lot to say.
