Panos Karnezis

Opis

In a Latin American rainforest, Father Thomas, a Catholic priest, comes across a wounded soldier and takes him to his church in an Indian village. The Indians are wary of this new arrival. Venustiano, the proud young head of the village, is determined to protect his people. But his immediate problem is the jaguar prowling around the village.

Recenzje

It is a gripping and worldly-wise performance from a novelist who is already well-respected but deserves to be better known. Phil Baker Sunday Times
