Archipiélago - Hardcover

by Inger-Maria Mahlke (Author), José Aníbal Campos (Author)

Rosa returns to the Canary Islands in search of something. What? She doesn't know. She is as lost as the rest of her family, the once influential and conservative Bernadotte lineage. Perhaps she can find answers from her grandfather Julio, who, in his nearly one hundred years of life, has witnessed the political history of the island and the mark it has left on all those around him. With a brilliant and strange literary style, the author of Archipiélago retraces Julio's life, that of the Baute and Bernadotte families, but also that of those who had no name: the small great stories of those who have not gone down in history.
