Seller's Description:
Good jacket. New York. 1969. Scribners. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Slightly Worn Dustjacket. 117 pages. hardcover. JACKET DESIGN BY MARIAN EBERT. keywords: Latin America Costa Rica Central America Literature Translated World Literature. DESCRIPTION-AGAPITO is a discovery-unusual in form as well as in content. The story of a boy in his seventh year, it immediately involves the reader's senses, both physical and emotional, In a highly affecting narrative consisting of a series of short, vital episodes-independent yet interconnected-the author has created an evocative ‘dialogue' between the boy and his father's peon, Agapito, a vividly drawn man closely attached to earth and life. Although Agapito remains the silent partner in the exchange, the boy observes and expresses an extraordinary range of experience-the taste of bread and sugar, the death of a little girl, the absurdities and ironies in man and nature. While AGAPITO embraces joy and elation as well as deep sorrow, it is above all a transcending affirmation. inventory #13766.
