- by Saúl from Callao, Perú
Una extraordinaria novela, con una inigualable interpretación de René Muñoz en el rol protagónico. Novela biográfica muy instructiva y muy bien documentada. Fue vista con agrado por el pueblo peruano, muy devoto de san Martín. René Muñoz es el único actor que se parece extraordinariamente a la imagen que tenemos de San Martín de Porres. Díficil encontrar una similitud en lo físico como en el diseño del personaje tanto en Perú como en México, verdaderamente un personaje único, por lo cual ha interpretado varias novelas y películas del Santo Peruano de la escoba.
