Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Winner of the Leapfrog Global Fiction Prize "Precise, moving writing--a powerful and compelling collection."--Joseph Hurka, author of Fields of Light"The unadorned sentences often reach a conclusion whose truth makes you catch your breath. This unpretentious book is the work of a master."--…Edith Pearlman, National Book Award finalist"One of the most compelling stories published [by the Yale Review]. . . . A thoughtful, reflective, sensitive, and graceful work."--Kai Erikson, former editor, The Yale ReviewThese are stories of unexpected encounters far from home, told with a vivid sense of place. A white man with more wives than money becomes Africa's least-competent thief, two Americans contemplate love's costs and possibilities in Mexico's mountains, a seasick missionary bumps into God on the equator. George Rosen's characters seek, and sometimes find, a reality in which "everywhere, there is something remarkable." Tales of soccer, death, hot water, lost love, and the presence of God in Africa, Mexico, and coastal New England. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Soft Cover. Condizione: As New. Condizione sovraccoperta: No Dust Jacket As Issued. First Printing. Publisher's glossy wraps. Rosen's seven tales find characters coping with everyday realitieslove, death, parenthood, and faithas well as wide-ranging internal observations and provocations large and small. In the tender A Second L…anguage, Albert Benson ventures to Oaxaca, Mexico, to immerse himself in the country and take Spanish lessons. While there, he meets Maria, who is accompanying her elderly mother on vacation, and the two form a meandering relationship that reawakens the prospects of love as well as its haunting memories. The title tale follows a mission boat on its way to Africa in the mid-1800s. When one missionary becomes seasick, he begins to reconsider his connection to God as well as his intentions to fulfill his service, much to the chagrin of his fellow missionaries. With A Good White Hunter, a displaced Englishman living in Africa finds himself unintentionally married to three women. Unable to pay for his many children's school fees, he attempts a slipshod robbery of his employer's store. Settings fluctuate between Africa, Mexico, and New England, incorporating varied textures of landscape and culture within Rosen's measured stories. --Leah Strauss. "Energetic and lovingly described stories . . . . Rosen is a yarn spinner in the best sense of the word." --Publishers Weekly . The volume is in perfect, pristine condition, unmarked, tight, square and clean. AS NEW. 8vo 8" - 9" tall. 160 pp.
