Set in a small politically unstable Latin American country, the story follows the half English and half Latino Dr. Eduardo Plarr, who left his home to find a better life. Along the way he meets an array of people, including British Consul Charley Fortnum, a representative in Latin America who is trying to keep Revolution from occurring. He is also a remorseful alcoholic. Another person the doctor meets is Clara, whom he immediately falls in love with, but there is a problem: Clara is Charley's wife.
Editor's Verdict
"Based on the provided plot summary, 'The Honorary Consul' is a political drama focused on illicit romance, political instability, and personal anguish (alcoholism). There is no indication that the Christmas season plays any meaningful role in the setting, plot development, or thematic exploration."
