This is the first book by Juan Tomás Ávila Laurel to have been translated into English. Jethro Soutar has done an exquisite job, in particular in rendering the rhythm of the writing. It is to be hoped that he will also translate the author’s other works.
Juan Tomás Ávila Laurel has been compared to Gabriel Garcia Marquez and Chinua Achebe so do have a look at[[The Education of a British-Protected Child by Chinua Achebe]] . [[In the Beginning Was the Sea by Tomas Gonzalez]] was also shortlisted for the 2015 Independent Foreign Fiction Prize.
