About the Author
Titu Cusi Yupanqui was an Inca noble and chronicler whose firsthand account offers a rare indigenous perspective on the Spanish conquest of Peru. Writing from within the collapsing Inca world, he blends personal testimony with political advocacy, seeking to preserve his people's history and negotiate their survival under colonial rule. His narrative stands as both a historical document and a literary act of resistance, capturing the cultural upheaval of the sixteenth century with clarity and urgency.
