The arrival of the fugitive, who hopes to cross the border taking advantage of the rising Rio Grande with the merciless storms of the rainy season, will alter the tranquility of the small community of ranchers and will confront the two brothers, who will debate between love and hatred, resentment and guilt. In this landscape as inexorable as destiny, whose social and historical reality remains unchanged, Simenon concocts one of his most notable romans durs, the first of his American period, where he recreates a complex family plot.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 176\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.55 x 8.03 x 5.28 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 01, 2022\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42158346993799,"sku":"9788433902139","price":21.55,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/8e70edc7553296cc2ae1dd25dfc1fd45.webp?v=1733258109","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/el-fondo-de-la-botella-paperback","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
