About This Item
New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 1992. Third Printing. Hardcover with Dust Jacket. Near Fine/Fine.
No Flaws or Blemishes but minimal shelf handling and age-spotting on the top-edge. Appears unread. . Garcia's first novel is about Cuba, her native country, and three generations of del Pino women who are seeking spiritual homes for their passionate, often troubled souls. Celia del Pino and her descendants also share clairvoyant and visionary powers that somehow remain undiminished, despite the Cuban revolution and its profound effect upon their lives.
Writing experimentally in a variety of forms, she combines narratives, love letters, and monologs to portray the del Pinos as they move back and forth through time. Garcia tells their story with an economy of words and a rich, tropical imagery, setting a brisk but comfortable pace. [Library Journal]
