Nota de la solapa:
Light of My Father's Smile is Alice Walker's first novel in six years--a stunning, original, and important book by "one of the best American writers of today" (The Washington Post).
A family from the United States goes to the remote Sierras in Mexico--the writer-to-be, Susannah; her sister, Magdalena; her father and mother. And there, amid an endangered band of mixed-race Blacks and Indians called the Mundo, they begin an encounter that will change them more than they could ever dream. Moving back and forth in time, and among unforgettable characters and their stories, Walker crosses conventional borders of all kinds as she explores in this magical novel the ways in which a woman's denied sexuality leads to the loss of the much prized and necessary original self; and how she regains that self, even as her family's past of lies and love is transformed.

Buchbeschreibung Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Fine. First Edition; First Printing. A handsome first edition/first printing in unread Fine condition in Fine dust-jacket; Walker's debut novel tells the story of seventeen-year-old Addie and her family as they navigate the complicated waters of life in the rural South. Addie is a bright, determined girl, but she's also painfully aware of the ways in which her family--especially her mother--is limited by their circumstances. When Addie's father is diagnosed with a terminal illness, Addie is determined to make the most of the time they have left together. She takes him on a journey through their past, sharing stories and memories that have shaped their family and their community. Addie's father's death is a devastating loss, but it also opens up new possibilities for Addie and her mother. They begin to explore their roots and their future, and they come to understand that they have more than they ever thought possible. Addie's story is inspiring and hopeful, and it reminds us that the light of our father's smile can always brighten our days.; 8vo. Artikel-Nr. 18220
