hardcover. 1st edition. New York. 1945. Knopf. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Chipped Dustjacket . Translated from the Spanish by Stuart Edgar Grummon. 204 pages. hardcover. Cover: Carlos Merida. keywords: Literature Translated Bolivia Latin America. FROM THE PUBLISHER - BEWITCHED LANDS is a novel of conflicting passions and loyalties, a fascinating tale of long-latent - and at last overt-violence on a feudal hacienda deep in the lush, uncharted Chaco region of Bolivia. The principal characters of this unusual and sophisticated story are: Don Pedro Vidal, aging and absolute master of the vast isolated Hacienda El Mataral; Doña Maria de Vidal, his pretty, pathetic, and unhappy young wife; Carlos Vidal, Don Pedro's son by a former wife, dead under mysterious circumstances; Mr. Treweek, a very English petroleum prospector - and the sympathetic narrator. Carlos Vidal, educated at military school in France, has been paroled in his father's custody after participating in an abortive revolt against his country's dictator. He is in rebellion against the medieval social ideas dominating his native land and summed up in his own father. The arrival of Mr. Treweek and his companion, in search of the petroleum whose existence Don Pedro wishes to deny, galvanizes Carlos into emotions, thoughts, and at last actions that lead inevitably to a series of violent crises. In the fabric of this brilliantly colored novel, Carlos's love for his stepmother is but one thread. inventory #16417 Very Good in Chipped Dustjacket.

Broschiert. Condition: Wie neu. Dust Jacket Condition: mit Schutzumschlag. 1a.ed. 190x135 mm. Colección de Autores Españoles e Hispanoamericanos. Erste Auflage, 369 p., Tela editorial con sobrecubierta. Sprache: Spanisch, Ejemplar en excelente estado. USADO / GEBRAUCHT / USED. Hijo de un ingeniero francés, oficial de artillería durante la guerra franco-prusiana 11870, Adolfo Costa du Rels nació en la ciudad boliviana de Sucre en 1891. Vivió muy niño en Huanchaca y, después, en Colquechaca, minas famosas de Bolivia. Fue, en sus años mozos, lo que en Bolivia se llama un kkoyarun, un hombre de la mina. Al internarse en las entrañas de la tierra, penetró también en el alma de los que allí trabajan y sufren. En Los Andes no creen en Dios, se muestra la profunda sensibilidad del autor para describir los ambientes y personajes de las regiones mineras del Altiplano boliviano. En Uyuni, Clotilde Esquivel regenta una casa de prostitución, donde las prostitutas expían un pecado del pasado. A través de "la casa" y de las relaciones de Clotilde, vamos conociendo a los personajes del pueblo y a los cateadores de las minas de la región -"los arcángeles"-. En un clima de incomprensión y rencor, se tejerá la historia de amor del joven Leo y Malvina, cuyo trágico desenlace conmoverá al lector. .
