On This Page
Description
This novel, which critics have likened to William Faulkner and Gabriel Garcia Marquez, is a philosophical parable in which the hero's unique abilities and alienation underscore the distinctive Caucasian culture and their strict code of honor. It is told from within an endemic culture threatened by the advance of modern civilization.Tags
