"Por nuestra cultura hablarán nuestros libros. Our books shall speak for our culture."
The Shadow of the Fathers. By Robert Friedman. ISBN: 978-0-915745-99-9. $22.95.
In Shadow of the Fathers, Robert Friedman turns a disturbing, possibly tragic historical event in Puerto Rico into a captivating work of fiction. Personal obsessions and public events collide as the novel's characters grapple with lies, false identities, puzzling connections, U.S. wars and colonialism. A rich, suspenseful tale, the novel moves from the colorful life of San Juan to the snow-covered streets of New York, from the pastel heat of Miami to the fog-shrouded canals of Amsterdam.
