The Trails of Ifigenia
Sensitive, intelligent and independent, Ifigenia Botero blazes her own trails through the cultural confines of Colombia during the 1960s and '70s. This novel recounts the sentimental, sexual, artistic and political education of a generation that came of age after a period wrought with violence. Narrated through the memories of her love-struck neighbor that are set in old mansions and urban slums and guerrilla camps, The Trails of Ifigenia is a celebration of bearded revolutionaries and peace-and-love hippies, the literature of the Latin American boom and clumsy young poets, salsa and rock, space travel and mountain paths.
