Description
Esta historia en tiempo presente, comienza en El Salvador y termina en un pueblo de Guatemala, Santiago Atitlan, habitada por los indigenas de Guatemala. La historia lleva al lector en una de las epocas mas representativas y turbulenta en la historia de Guatemala, a partir de 1973 hasta 1994, cuando los Acuerdos de Paz fueron firmados por el gobierno y La Union Revolucionaria Nacional de Guatemala (URNG) vecindario de Mexico. A traves de una serie de episodios a veces humoristicas, pero frecuentemente tragico, la autora se da cuenta que en realidad existen dos Guatemala- La Guatemala para turistas y relatos de viajes bonitos, y la verdadera Guatemala, donde la enfermedad y la pobreza abundan, donde la represion es lo peor en el Hemisferio Occidental . Los abusos gubernamentales estan destinadas a mantener intacto y para evitar cualquier posible revueltas en el pais, pero como con todos los abusos de regimenes represivos, el terror ocasionado a los ciudadanos guatemaltecos se han traducido solo caos. Mientras caminaba por el sendero panoramico de Panajachel, principal pueblo turistico del lago, la autora descubre que ella, tambien de alguna manera ha sido hecha una enemiga de Guatemala. *Los Acuerdos de Paz firmados en 1994 fueron un fracaso politico, y no fue hasta el 29 de diciembre de 1996, que el gobierno de la epoca, su ejercito y la guerrilla llegaron a un acuerdo para poner fin al conflicto, que en gran medida determinara si Guatemala sera capaz de saber una paz verdadera sin mas derramamiento de sangre en sus campos de maiz. "Rei, llore y aprendi mucho" Danielle Robertson "Una gran lectura para todos, particularmente esas historias interesantes en Centro America" Jeannette Sears."Agradezco a Bonnie Dilger por recordarme que eso es importante mas alla de uno mismo" Dr. William Faraclas."
