Blood of the Dawn
Autor Claudia Salazar Jimenez Traducere de Elizabeth Bryeren Limba Engleză Paperback – 14 noi 2016
Blood of the Dawn follows three women whose lives intertwine and are ripped apart during what's known as "the time of fear" in Peruvian history when the Shining Path militant insurgency was at its peak. The novel rewrites the conflict through the voice of women, activating memory through a mixture of politics, desire, and pain in a lucid and brutal prose.
