Very Good jacket. New York. 2000. June 2000. Doubleday. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Dustjacket. Remainder Mark. 0385498012. Translated from the Spanish by Margaret Sayers Peden. 353 pages. hardcover. JACKET ILLUSTRATION BY DIEGO RIVERA, 'Women with flowers and vegetables, 1928'. JACKET DESIGN BY AMY C. KING. keywords: Latin America Chile Literature Women Translated World Literature. DESCRIPTION-Josefa Ferrer, a famous Chilean singer and star, awakens one morning to read in the Santiago newspaper that her best friend, Violeta, has been involved in a brutal act 0f violence. Overwhelmed with regret and plagued with guilt for not having foreseen the tragedy, Josefa feels compelled to tell Violeta's life story-one marked by lost ideals, disillusionment, and grief-which is ultimately Josefa's story, too. Through the interwoven lives 0f these two women, Marcela Serrano explores how the demands 0f a woman s role as mother, wife, lover, and friend are frequently at odds with her own dreams and aspirations, and how easily the fragile bonds of friendship and family can be strained to the breaking point. For Josefa and Violeta, it is only in Antigua, under the watchful eyes 0f ‘the others'-a chorus of female ancestral spirits who testify to the women's defining moments of strength and courage-that Josefa and Violeta will discover that even in the aftermath of violence and betrayal they have control over their destinies and their redemption. Exquisitely crafted and written in beautiful, lyrical prose, Marcela Serrano's unforgettable novel about friendship, forgiveness, and second chances speaks to every woman who has experienced the wrenching divide between professional ambition and family responsibility, who has been torn between the excitement of illicit passion and the security of marriage, who has craved the thrill of success while yearning for solitude in an often chaotic, invasive world. inventory #33782.
