Compelling and unforgettable, this remarkable, bittersweet story of a doomed love affair set in the colonial era "demonstrates that one of the masters of the form is still working at the height of his powers" (The New York Times). Amid the lush, coastal tropics of a South American seaport, an unruly, co pper-haired girl and a bookish priest are caught in a chaste, ill-fated love affair.

<b>Byatt, A. S., <i>New York Times Book Review</i>:</b> "...[G]rotesque, terrible, glinting and gloomy. The world is the familiar Garcia Marquez world, a mixture of phantasmagoria and a realism whose truths seem as incredible and strange as the moments of demonic magic. The tale--spare and swift in the telling--has all the ineluctable, irrational fatality of 'Chronicle of a Death Foretold' (1982), though the love story, also grim and driven, has none of the comic and inconsequential gentleness of 'Love in the Time of Cholera' (1988)."
