Description



About the Book



"A finales de 1984, dos jâovenes hermanos guatemaltecos, exiliados desde hace aänos en Estados Unidos, vuelven a Guatemala para participar en un campamento de niänos judâios en un bosque perdido de las montaänas del altiplano. Poco saben de su paâis natal, y ya apenas hablan espaänol. Sus padres les han insistido en que irâian a pasar unos dâias en el campamento para aprender no sâolo formas de sobrevivencia en la naturaleza, sino tambiâen formas de supervivencia en la naturaleza para niänos judâios. Que no es lo mismo, les han dicho. Pero una maänana, los niänos decubren que el campamento ha sido transformado en algo mucho mâas siniestro: ahora cada uno tendrâa que encontrar su propia forma de sobrevivir"--Page 4 of cover
