As the pair grow closer, Iván begins to understand that his new friend is hiding a terrible secret… One afternoon, he meets a mysterious foreigner in the company of two Russian wolfhounds. Years later, he’s a humbled and defeated man living a quiet, unremarkable life. The story revolves around Iván Cárdenas Maturell, once the great hope of modern Cuban literature–until he wrote a story deemed counterrevolutionary. For the uninitiated there is a great deal of enlightenment to the Jewish faith in all its facets, and the Jane Austen Readers’ Award is hereby granted to Mirta Ines Trupp for The Meyersons of Meryton.Leonardo Padura brings a noir sensibility to a fascinating and complex political narrative: the 1940 assassination of Leon Trotsky in Mexico.
Mr Darcy is therefore the man of the moment, and Mr Wickham is involved in the dark mix. The novel has amusing asides and a literary touch to the prose. Unfortunately the pickle the two elders fall into requires an intrepid hero. Their covert observations, however, are not without risk. In the meanwhile, Mr Bennet discovers he and the Rabbi have a deal in common. With alacrity Miss Mary Bennet embraces the mayhem all around (rather pleased her many seeming faults are less noticeable). Mrs Bennet and her daughters unfamiliar with the Jewish faith are as intrigued as they are baffled by it. While the Bennet family, Mr Charles Bingley, and Mr Fitzwilliam Darcy provide a familial feel to this novel, Rabbi Meyerson and his family bring to light a Jewish community within Meryton. Flurry and panic of an imminent double wedding at the Bennet household is apparent in this mid-themed Pride & Prejudice variation.
