Lost Steps, Paperback / softback Book

Lost Steps Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Translated into twenty languages and published in more than fourteen Spanish editions, The Lost Steps, originally published in 1953, is Alejo Carpentier's most heralded novel. A composer, fleeing an empty existence in New York City, takes a journey with his mistress to one of the few remaining areas of the world not yet touched by civilization-the upper reaches of a great South American river.

The Lost Steps describes his search, his adventures, and the remarkable decision he makes in a village that seems to be truly outside history.
