Description: |
Murder, intrigue, suspicious cash, public munificence, scandal? and tree farming? A family saga of Sephardic Jews living in Chile. |
Synopsis: |
An old-fashioned family saga that touches upon globalization and the Jewish diasporaSegura is a well-known documentary filmmaker who studies French perceptions of Latin AmericaPossible blurb from Stephen Sparks (Writers No One Reads/Green Apple Books, SF)A whodunit murder story replete with intrigue, betrayals, self-sacrificeExplores tension between landowners (Jewish) and the indigenous populationMedia tie-ins: there has been some work done recently (NY Times, Nov. 2012) on eucalyptus tree classification in Australia. That said, this novel is not to be confused with the Australian magic romance novel of the same name by Murray Bail, nor the 2013 film starring Nicole Kidman (though if it does well the film might bring more attention to eucalpytus trees) |
