ISBN: 9780307806512 bzw. 0307806510, vermutlich in Englisch, Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group, neu, E-Book, elektronischer Download.
Light Action in the Caribbean: Moving from fable and historical fiction to contemporary realism, this book of stories from Barry Lopez is erotic and wise, full of irresistible characters doing things they shouldn`t do for reasons that are mysterious and irreducible. In `The Letters of Heaven,` a packet of recently discovered 17th-century Peruvian love letters presents a 20th-century man with the paralyzing choice of either protecting or exposing their stunning secret. When some young boys on the lookout for easy money get caught with a truckload of stolen horses, thievery quickly turns into redemption. For a group of convicts, a gathering of birds in the prison yard may be the key to transcendence, both figurative and literal. And, with the title story, Lopez enters a territory of unmitigated evil reminiscent of Conrad. Here are saints who shouldn`t touch, but do sinners who insist on the life of the spirit a postcard paradise that turns into nightmare. Light Action in the Caribbean has already been hailed by Russell Banks as `tough-minded, emotionally turbulent, and always intelligent.` E. Annie Proulx describes these stories as `subtle and mysterious` and says that a reader `cannot leave Lopez`s fictional territory unchanged.` This is a book that breaks exciting new ground for Barry Lopez.
