Description: "The narrative voice in this short novel about family values does not indicate how those values can be complicated by the subjectivity of friendship, solidarity, and patriotic 'love of the land.' Although Aunt Nice and the grandmother play a significant role in the narrator's life, the novel's six parts are ruled, in every sense, by men. Attempts to include 'slice of life' connections with Costa Rican history are never fully developed"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
