Publisher's Synopsis
Text in Spanish. In a quest to find his old lover, Elipsio finds himself in Chicago, a city radically alien to him and his Colombian roots. Set in the 1970s, this novel masterfully combines a love story with the reality of great cultural transformations in the United States, seen through the eyes of a Latino immigrant. Beatniks, hippies, ghettos, mafias, and clandestine revolutions tell Elipsio's adventurous tale.
