About this product
Product Information
"This barrio angel teaches us how to see behind the appearance of things and how to embrace reality with all the senses." --Isabel Allende "Laura Restrepo breathes life into a singular amalgam of journalistic investigation and literary creation. Her fascination with popular culture and the play of her impeccable humor, of that biting but at the same time tender irony . . . infuses them with unmistakable reading pleasures." --Gabriel Garc a M rquez Winner of Mexico's Sor Juana In s de la Cruz Prize, and France's Prix France Culture, The Angel of Galilea introduces a refreshing new voice in Latin American literature to the English speaking audience. Mona is a jaded reporter for a Colombian tabloid sent on assignment to investigate an angel sighting in one of Bogot 's most devastated barrios, where she encounters a community torn apart by a passionate conflict over a beautiful man who walks the fine line between sanity and sainthood. For the people of Galilea, this mysterious and sensual "angel without a name" represents their hope amidst desperate circumstances; for Mona, he awakens her desire to love and gives her a reason to believe. When the barrio's priest leads a revolt against the fallen angel, Mona risks everything to protect him from the gang that threatens to destroy him. "Restrepo is a writer to treasure." --Alastair Reid "Sharply resonant." -- The New York Times Book Review "Surprising, wonderful, and, for me, deeply moving." --Alvaro Mutis
