>The great novel about the Falklands War, by the winner of the Alfaguara Novel Prize, an author with more than 500,000 readers worldwide. "Sacheri manages, like few others, to give the stories he tells a universal dimension. Stories of ordinary people where everyday life becomes epic." --Juan José Campanella In April 1982, following the recovery of the Falklands by the Argentine Armed Forces, three reservist soldiers from the class of 1962 are called back into service and sent to the islands. Full of expectation, curiosity, and a thirst for adventure, Carlitos, Antonio, and El Conejo venture into this unknown territory, which will become increasingly inhospitable as distant diplomatic negotiations fail and war with the British breaks out. They will then face deprivation, cold, fear, and a loneliness that can only be lessened with great difficulty by the strength of their friendship. And together with their comrades and their superiors, they will experience the wide range of feelings and attitudes--nobility, selfishness, courage, stupidity--born of the extreme situation that war imposes on human beings. In this moving story, Eduardo Sacheri focuses on the war in the Falkland Islands and its protagonists: soldiers of all ranks and varied behavior, and these three young men who, barely out of adolescence, face what has been thrust upon them with the resources of an age in which they have their whole lives--and deaths--ahead of them.
