#Latinobooks "It's said that Don Quixote went mad from reading too many wild romances of chivalry. The greatest of these was AmadÍs of Gaul with its mysterious heroine Oriana, who would appear in Ariosto's poem, Proust's Duchese de Germantes. L. Guerrero with Louis Reyes Rivera have given us Oriana once more in what could pass as a latter-day romance of chivalry. There is nothing virtual about Latin American reality as it borders so closely on the world of the fantastic. Its tale might well drive some contemporary Quixote daft. Readers of this novel must be careful and look to their sanity." -Gregory Rabassa, the preeminent American translator of Spanish and Portguese; his works include Gabriel Garcia Marquez's One Hundred Years of Solitude, and Joaquim Maria Machado de Assis's The Posthumous Memoirs of Bras Cubas. "This is an international crime story with the ghosts and skeletons of history. This story melds the personal, and the individual characters, with the political and international which is handled organically. This book reminds me of one of my favorite novels of the last 20-years, 'Four Hands, ' by Paco Ignacio Taibo II, a book that also features a journalist-protagonist, along with a cast of other characters."
