Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. 240 pages. As the millions of fans of Like Water for Chocola te know, Laura Esquivel is a romanticist whose novels explore the power of love and the truths of the human heart. She returns to those themes in Swift as Desire, the story of a loving and passio nate man who has the gift of bringing happiness to everyone excep t his own wife. The hero of this novelis Jubilo Chi, a telegraph operator who is born with the ability to hear people's true feel ings and respond to their most intimate, unspoken desires. His li fe changes forever the day he falls deeply and irrevocably in lov e with Lucha, the beautiful daughter of a wealthy family. She bel ieves money is necessary to insure happiness, while for Jubilo, w ho is poor, love and desire are more important than possessions. But their passion for each other enables them to build a happy li fe together -- until their idyll is shattered by a terrible event that drives them bitterly apart. Only years later, as Jubilo lie s dying, is his daughter able to unravel the mystery behind her p arents' long estrangement and bring about a surprising reconcilia tion.

Paperback. Condizione: Good. An enchanting, bittersweet story, touched with graphic earthiness and wit; Esquivel shows us how keeping secrets will always lead to unhappiness, and how communication is the key to love. Instead of entering the world crying like other babies, Jubilo was born with a smile on his face. He had a gift for hearing what was in people's hearts, for listening to sand dunes sing and insects whisper. Even as a young boy, acting as an interpreter between his warring Mayan grandmother and his Spanish-speaking mother, he would translate words of spite into words of respect, so that their mutual hatred turned to love. When he grew up, he put his gift to good use in his job as a humble telegraph operator. But now the telegraph lies abandoned, obsolete as a form of communication in the electronic age, and don Jubilo is on his deathbed, mute and estranged from his beloved wife, Lucha, who refuses to speak to him. What tragic event has come between two such sensuous, loving people to cause their seemingly irreparable rift? What mystery lies behind the death of the son no one ever mentions? Can their daughter bring reconciliation to her parents before it is too late, by acting as an interpreter between them, just as Jubilo used to do for other people? Swift as Desire is Laura Esquivel's loving tribute to her father, who worked his own lifelong magic as a telegraph operator. In this enchanting, bittersweet story, touched with graphic earthiness and wit, she shows us how keeping secrets will always lead to unhappiness, and how communication is the key to love. 240 pages.
