This book is a feast for the senses. The author, Marie Arana, is a master at describing the atmosphere and emotions in this book. The surroundings are vibrant with color and music and the characters are so real, it makes you feel their desire, pain, and loneliness.
This book is about a married man who falls in love with the young girl in Lima, Peru. It's a story about this unlucky relationship and the consequenses of these two charachters desires. It then flashes forward 20 years and we see how the couple is surviving after all these years. We realize that there were motives to this relationship. Its a sad book but very engrossing, you won't want to put it down-just to see what happens when the affair is discovered.
3 Stars
