Descripción Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. This dark, sprawling novel is the English language debut of Emiliano Monge, a Mexican writer who is often compared to the US literary superstar Cormac McCarthy. Written in a tone that evokes McCarthys unrelenting classic Blood Meridian, the novel tells the story of German Alcantara Carnero, a dangerous campesino fighting to survive in rural 20th century Mexico, and also a metaphor for the spiraling violence of contemporary Mexican society. Culture TripSet on a desolate, unnamed mesa, Emiliano Monges The Arid Sky distills the essence of a Latin America ruthlessly hollowed out by uncontainable violence. This is an unsparing yet magnificent land, whose only constants are loneliness, hatred, loyalty, and the struggle to return some small measure of meaning to life.Thundering and inventive, The Arid Sky narrates the signature moments in the life of German Alcantara Carnero: a man who is both exaltedly, viscerally real and is an ageless, nameless being capable of embodying entire eras, cultures, and conflicts. Monges roadmapan escape across borders, the disappearance of a young girl, the confrontation between a father and his son, the birth of a sick child, and murdertakes readers on a journey to the core of humankind that posits a challenge of the kind only great literature can pose.
