An advance due to him on his upcoming novel, the small fortune might mean the solution to his problems, most importantly the tension he has with his wife. While she spends her days at work and her nights out on the town-with a lover, perhaps, he doesn't know for sure-Lucas is stuck at home all day staring at the blank page, caring for his son Maiko and fantasizing about the one thing that keeps him going: the woman from Uruguay whom he met at a conference and has been longing to see ever since. But that woman, MagalÌ Guerra Zabala, is a free spirit with her own relationship troubles, and the day they spend together in this beautiful city on the beach winds up being nothing like Lucas predicted. The constantly surprising, moving story of this dramatically transformative day in their lives, The Woman from Uruguay is both a gripping narrative and a tender, thought-provoking exploration of the nature of relationships. An international bestseller published in fourteen countries, it is the masterpiece of one of the most original voices in Latin American literature today." -- $c Book jacket. 520 $a Trapped in a loveless marriage, Lucas Pereyra, an unemployed writer in his forties, finds the one thing that keeps him going is the woman from Uruguay whom he met at a conference and has been longing to see ever since. 546 $a Translated from the Spanish. 650 0 $a Authors $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Midlife crisis $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Man-woman relationships $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Marriage $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Desire $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Argentines $z Uruguay $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Psychological fiction. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a Croft, Jennifer $c (Translator), $e translator. 941 $a 9 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117023243.0 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20231010023611.0 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20220909065012.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20220630013043.0 952 $l YTPG232 $d 20211203011752.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20211202014404.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20211002010913.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20210910010430.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20210724010055.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=68CD35A8EC4411EB9415572043ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
