Set in strife-torn Guatemala City in the early 1980s, this sophisticated, quasi-comedic tale depicts the decline and near-fall of a prominent Guatemalan Jewish family. In the face of military rule, terrorism, and sabotage, Marcos learns the truth about his brother Aaron, only to find that sibling secrets can be every bit as dangerous as civil unrest.

Recensioner i media

A sharply intelligent, passionately written novel. - Oscar Hijuelos, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Mambo Kings Play Songs of Love ""Funny, always vibrant with its surreally intense characters. It is a great read, not only for the ironies and wry humor about the human condition, but also because it celebrates human diversity"" - Susan Smith Nash, World Literature Today
