This is an unsparing yet magnificent land, whose only constants are loneliness, hatred, loyalty, and the struggle to return some small measure of meaning to life. Thundering and inventive, The Arid Sky narrates the signature moments in the life of GermaÌn Alcantara Carnero: a man who is both exaltedly, viscerally real and is an ageless, nameless being capable of embodying entire eras, cultures, and conflicts. Monge's roadmap--an escape across borders, the disappearance of a young girl, the confrontation between a father and his son, the birth of a sick child, and murder--takes readers on a journey to the core of humankind that posits a challenge of the kind only great literature can pose."--Amazon.com. 546 $a Translated from the Spanish. 650 0 $a Border crossing $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Missing children $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Murder $v Fiction. 650 7 $a Border crossing. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01715649 650 7 $a Missing children. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01023685 650 7 $a Murder. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01029781 651 0 $a Latin America $v Fiction. 651 7 $a Latin America. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01245945 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 $a Novels. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a Bunstead, Thomas, $e translator. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117032211.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=FACA95E65F0711ECA70E6FDD2BECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
