Book excerpt: La Condesa "Historia y Leyenda" es una novela donde se narra de una manera ficticia la vida de María Magdalena Catalina Dávalos de Bracamontes y Orozco, quien fuera la Tercera Condesa de Miravalle. Ambientada en el siglo XVIII en la Nueva España, en una época donde la religión era juez y verdugo de las conductas de los hombres y mujeres. La historia narrada en las líneas de este libro, invita al lector a transportarse en imaginación hasta aquellos tiempos y lugares, donde los hechos reales y ficticios se hacen uno mismo. La Condesa, una mujer poderosa que abusó de su belleza y de su título nobiliario para conseguir lo que se proponía, sin importarle sacrificar a su moral ni a sus buenos principios. Odiada por muchos y amada por muy pocos, que desafió a las costumbres de su época, llevándola incluso a enfrentarse con las autoridades eclesiásticas, situación que le trajo la desgracia y la tragedia. Mujer altiva y orgullosa, que era poseedora de muy buenos, y también de muy malos sentimientos. Víctima primero, victimaria después, esta la historia de una mujer que amó y fue amada, y que dejó una huella imborrable en los lugares que habitó. Esta una historia, que con el paso de los años, se convirtió en la inmortal leyenda.

Long a stronghold of the European elite, the city is now home to millions of Peruvians from the Andean region as well as the descendants of African slaves and migrants from Europe, China and Japan. As a popular saying puts it, the whole of Peru is now in Lima. James Higgins explores the city's history and evolving identity as reflected in its architecture, literature, painting and music.
