Book Description:
|
Whatever his subject-brutalities suffered under Pinochet's dictatorship, or the landscapes of legend-ary Patagonia-Sepulveda is an unflinchingly honest storyteller. Extravagant characters and situations are memorably evoked: gauchos organizing a tournament of lies or a pilot with a corpse on board his plane. Part autobiography, part travel memoir, Full Circle is the distinctive voice of one of South America's most compelling writers.
