Translated from the Catalan by John L. Getman. 169 pages. hardcover. Cover: Gail Carter. keywords: Literature Catalan Spain Translated. FROM THE PUBLISHER - Originally published in 1975, Cavalls cap a la fosca was hailed by the public and critics alike as perhaps the most incisive Catalan novel since the Spanish Civil War. It was honored with four prestigious literary prizes, including the 1976 Spanish Literary Critics' Award. Horses into the Night, while firmly set in the postmodernist 'magical realism' strain, remains entertaining and accessible; the narrator's search for his roots - especially for his father - among the myths, stories, lies, and truths of his family and hometown, strikes a universal chord. As the plot becomes increasingly textured with piracy, smuggling, the Inquisition, morbid familial relationships, eroticism, and occult occurrences, it is all but impossible to resist this epic story described by El Pais as a 'Mediterranean novel flooded with light and bathed in darkness.' inventory #29476 Price Sticker Mark On Front Endpaper, Otherwise Very Good in Dustjacket.
