Synopsis:

The Wayuu, descendants of the Arawak Indians of the Guyanas, are one of the few ethnic groups throughout the American continent to have successfully resisted European domination. This book is a fantastic, dreamlike journey through the dynamic culture and landscapes of the Wayuu today -- a semi-nomadic community of shepherds who inhabit the Colombian peninsula of La Guajira, the most desolate and barren territory in the entire Caribbean.
