A Spanish sailor is captured and adopted by the Colastine Indians in the early 16th century. As he learns about their traditions and rituals, he is confronted with new perspectives on reality. What drives the tribe's annual celebration of sex and cannibalism? Why does the sailor not share the same fate as his companions? In this gripping tale, Juan José Saer explores themes of reality, memory, and language within a story that reads like an adventure book. The result is a thought-provoking narrative that delves into the complexities of human experience. Hardcover edition, 240 pages.
