Large soft cover, SIGNED AND INSCRIBED BY AUTHOR, 283 pages, square clean and tight, flat spine with faint 1" crease at head. "In these ten haunting tales, Oakland Ross revisits and reimagines the human and political terrain he covered for many years as an award-winning foreign corresondent for the The Globe and Mail. All these stores are set in Latin American during the 1980's, a time when the region was beset by fierce social turmoil. Against settings that range from Chile during the rule of General Augusto Pinochet to El Salvador amid the ravages of civil war, Ross explores the wrenching dilemmas faced by Latin Americans as they struggle to lead normal lives in impossible circumstances or the North American expatriates as they confront their own demons far from home. Often harrowing, sometimes terrifying, and frequently magical, these tales of Latin America in troubled times are always deeply felt and powerfully rendered. The people they illuminate, and the lives they reveal, seem to burn themselves into every page." Check out the scans. Signed by Author. Seller Inventory # 003545
