About
"Bruna and Her Sisters in the Sleeping City is the first novel by Ecuador's foremost woman writer, Alicia Yanez Cossio. Available in English for the first time, this novel chronicles the history of Bruna and her wealthy, eccentric family." "At first glance a rollicking tale full of the outrageous adventures of Bruna's relatives, Bruna and Her Sisters in the Sleeping City is much more. Tracing the complete history of Ecuador from the Conquest through the 1970s, it is a seriocomic examination of the tensions and conflicts inherent in a world that wavers between tradition and change, between an oppressive colonial past and a modern society obsessed with material gain."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
