Soon the three form a happy sort-of family--a stepfamily, though no such word exists in their language. After a few years, their ambitions pull the lovers in different directions, but traces of Gonzalo remain: Vicente inherits his love of poetry. When, at eighteen, he meets Pru, an American journalist literally and figuratively lost in Santiago, he encourages her to write about Chilean poets--not the famous, dead kind, your Nerudas or Mistrals or Bolaos, but rather the living, everyday poets, who are also a kind of family. By the time Pru's article is published, Gonzalo has returned to Chile. But will he and Vicente find their way back to one another? 650 0 $a Poets, Chilean $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Families $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Stepfamilies $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Fathers and sons $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Interpersonal relations $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Domestic fiction. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a McDowell, Megan, $e translator. 941 $a 12 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20231010025609.0 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20230616010104.0 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20230221010503.0 952 $l GHPD771 $d 20230201011643.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20221103012517.0 952 $l NYPE343 $d 20220903010846.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20220804024729.0 952 $l TYPH572 $d 20220630014022.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20220302013501.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20220302013037.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20220302010710.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20220217010942.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=72BB54B88FBF11ECBA4AA6A62FECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
