Buch, das gelesen wurde, sich aber in einem guten Zustand befindet. Der Einband weist nur sehr geringfügige Beschädigungen auf, wie z.B. kleinere Schrammen, er hat aber weder Löcher, noch ist er eingerissen. Bei gebundenen Büchern ist der Schutzumschlag möglicherweise nicht mehr vorhanden. Die Bindung weist geringfügige Gebrauchsspuren auf. Die Mehrzahl der Seiten ist unbeschädigt, das heißt, es gibt kaum Knitter oder Einrisse, es wurden nur in geringem Maße Bleistiftunterstreichungen im Text vorgenommen, es gibt keine Textmarkierungen und die Randbereiche sind nicht beschrieben. Alle Seiten sind vollständig vorhanden. Genauere Einzelheiten sowie eine Beschreibung eventueller Mängel entnehmen Sie bitte dem Angebot des Verkäufers.

Reviews
NOW A NATIONAL BESTSELLER "A beautifully rendered novel of an Escobar-era Colombian childhood...You don't need to have grown up in Bogota to be taken in by Contreras's simple but memorable prose and absorbing storyline...I can't help wondering what novels about Colombia 25 years from now will have to say about this current period. I can only hope they'll be as sensitive and thoughtful as this one." --THE NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW "One of the most dazzling and devastating novels I've read in a long time...An exquisitely intimate double portrait of two young women....Unforgettable...Readers of Fruit of the Drunken Tree will surely be transformed." --SAN FRANCSICO CHRONICLE "Simultaneously propulsive and poetic, reminiscent of Isabel Allende... Fruit of the Drunken Tree offers a wake-up call for many. An eye-opening story of survival in a place history books and crime sagas (see: "Narcos") would have us think we know better than we do...Listen to this new author's voice -- she has something powerful to say." --ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY "Original, politically daring, and passionately written-- Fruit of the Drunken Tree is the coming-of-age female empowerment story we need in 2018." --VOGUE "When women tell stories, they are finally at the center of the page. When women of color write history, we see the world as we have never seen it before. In Fruit of the Drunken Tree , Ingrid Rojas Contreras honors the lives of girls who witness war. Brava! I was swept up by this story." --SANDRA CISNEROS, author of THE HOUSE ON MANGO STREET "A coming of age story, an immigrant story, a thrilling mystery novel, thoroughly lived and felt--this is an exciting debut novel that showcases a writer already in full command of her powers. Make room on your shelves for a writer whose impressive debut promises many more." --JULIA ALVAREZ, author of IN THE TIME OF THE BUTTERFLIES and HOW THE GARC Í A GIRLS LOST THEIR ACCENTS "Set against the backdrop of Pablo Escobar's stranglehold on the fate of a nation, Fruit of the Drunken Tree is a spellbinding story of two girls whose realities collide and who are forced to make nearly unbearable choices in the name of survival. The thrum of mystery and danger haunts every page, and you won't be able to look away until you turn the last one." --CRISTINA HENRÍQUEZ, author of THE BOOK OF UNKNOWN AMERICANS "From its unforgettable opening image to its heartbreakingly perfect final line, Fruit of the Drunken Tree casts an irresistible spell, summoning us into the fierce, perilous world of two young girls in a nation on the brink. Ingrid Rojas Contreras's lush language finds hidden beauty in even the ugliest pain. A stunning debut." --ROBIN WASSERMAN, author of GIRLS ON FIRE " This is storytelling as a heroic act, and Ingrid Rojas Contreras is a heroine that literature desperately needs--her every page feels born, urgent, and blazingly true." --AFFINITY KONAR, author of MISCHLING
Synopsis
NATIONAL BESTSELLER * Seven-year-old Chula lives a carefree life in her gated community in Bogotá, but the threat of kidnappings, car bombs, and assassinations hover just outside her walls, where the godlike drug lord Pablo Escobar reigns, capturing the attention of the nation. "Simultaneously propulsive and poetic, reminiscent of Isabel Allende...Listen to this new author's voice--she has something powerful to say." -- Entertainment Weekly When her mother hires Petrona, a live-in-maid from the city's guerrilla-occupied neighborhood, Chula makes it her mission to understand Petrona's mysterious ways. Petrona is a young woman crumbling under the burden of providing for her family as the rip tide of first love pulls her in the opposite direction. As both girls' families scramble to maintain stability amidst the rapidly escalating conflict, Petrona and Chula find themselves entangled in a web of secrecy. Inspired by the author's own life, Fruit of the Drunken Tree is a powerful testament to the impossible choices women are often forced to make in the face of violence and the unexpected connections that can blossom out of desperation., NATIONAL BESTSELLER - Seven-year-old Chula lives a carefree life in her gated community in Bogotá, but the threat of kidnappings, car bombs, and assassinations hover just outside her walls, where the godlike drug lord Pablo Escobar reigns, capturing the attention of the nation.
