Taschenbuch. Condition: Gut. 224 S, Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Vergilbt, sonst guter Zustand / Yellowed, otherwise in good condition. - Juan Carlos, a self-styled ladies' man, is dying of tuberculosis. The four women in his life keep watch over him: his doting mother, his vigilant, protective sister, and the two current loves of his lifeone a portrait of purity, the other as wicked as she is seductive. They all bemoan Juan's cruel destiny, and their devotion to him is so encompassing that their own lives are forgotten in the shadow of his decline. Alive with wit, irony, and compassion, Heartbreak Tango confirms the Washington Post's words of praise for Manuel Puig: "It is his mastery of plot, counterplot, the character's scheming, that lifts Puig into the circle of his peers (Borges and Marquez)."
