Produktbeschreibung
A generational novel about the unknowns and uncertainties of coming of age.  Twenty-one years after graduating highschool, two friends meet to reminisce about their common past, a past that one of them is transforming into a novel. Thus, they engage in a relentless conversation about the lies and truth of that time involving scandal in a conservative town in 1990s Bolivia.   Andrea and Julián, drink and talk while bar-hopping in Houston. As the hours pass, the meeting brings to light that tragic March that no one could forget, one that forever marked their group of upper-class friends in Cochabamba, the city from which they escaped and do not intend to return. The group, still impacted by their final year of high school, learn that every action has lasting consequences.
