Sobre IBD

Se acepta universalmente que de este libro nació REPÚBLICA BANANERA, el calificativo con el que muchos llaman a Honduras. Su autor, el escritor estadounidense O. Henry, vivió seis meses en Trujillo, a donde llegó huyendo de la justicia de su país. Esa experiencia le sirvió de inspiración para escribir Repollos y Reyes, la obra donde retrata la corrupción, las tretas de los inversionistas y de aquellos políticos que encontraron una mina de oro en este país, así como su peculiar visión de los habitantes de Anchuria, nombre imaginario que no es otra cosa que Honduras.
