Richard Bowmaster--a 60-year-old human rights scholar--hits the car of Evelyn Ortega--a young, undocumented immigrant from Guatemala--in the middle of a snowstorm in Brooklyn. What at first seems just a small inconvenience takes an unforeseen and far more serious turn when Evelyn turns up at the professor's house seeking help. At a loss, the professor asks his tenant Lucia Maraz--a 62-year-old lecturer from Chile--for her advice. These three very different people are brought together in a mesmerizing story that moves from present- day Brooklyn to Guatemala in the recent past to 1970s Chile and Brazil, sparking the beginning of a long overdue love story between Richard and Lucia. --|cProvided by publisher. 650 0 College teachers|vFiction. 650 0 Women college teachers|vFiction. 650 0 Illegal immigration|vFiction. 650 0 Human rights|vFiction. 651 0 New York (N.Y.)|vFiction. 651 0 Guatemala|vFiction. 651 0 Chile|vFiction. 655 7 Large type books.|2local 655 7 Love stories.|2gsafd 700 1 Castor, Nick,|etranslator. 700 1 Hopkinson, Amanda,|d1948-|etranslator.
