Biography
Ciro Alegría was born in Sartimbaba in the Libertad province, in the North-East of Peru, in 1909. His parents ran a hacienda and were, apparently, more enlightened towards the native and mestizo peasants who worked on their farm than many other farm owners. He studied under César Vallejo while at school. While at university, he joined the Aprista Party, a Marxist group. He helped organise a rebellion, for which he was jailed and tortured. After getting out, he organised another rebellion and was again jailed but was released under an amnesty. He continued his revolutionary activities and was deported to Chile, where he took up writing and wrote his best-known works. He received a prize in the US for El mundo es ancho y ajeno (Broad and Alien Is the World) and lived there for eight years, working for a press agency and teaching at Columbia University. He then moved to Puerto Rico and then to Havana, before returning to Peru, where he was elected a member of parliament. He died in 1967. His widow undertook publication of all of his work that had not been published. He will be remembered for his novels that are sympathetic to the plight of the native population.
