A propos de cet article

Author: Cusack, Geraldine O'Connell Number Of Pages: 258 Release Date: 30-07-2012 Details: Product Description The story of a family and of Chile. In the year 1924, a young singer with the Folies Bergère arrives in a remote mining camp deep in the Atacama Desert of northern Chile. The brash Parisian dance troupe has been invited to perform for Chacabuco's directors and engineers and their pampered wives. But when Colette Marchand falls in love with a young Argentinean, she sets off a chain of events that will determine the lives of several generations of her family to come; events that will explode into the rapidly changing social and political fabric of Chilean society. Praise for The Limit of Words and Silence: ?Chile's turbulent history provides the dramatic backdrop for this epic tale of passion, intrigue and heroism. Author Geraldine O'Connell Cusack is a born storyteller, fiery, authentic, and true to her craft.? ? Ronan O'Leary, film director (Driftwood, Fragments of Isabella) ?Innocence lost, hopes dashed and idealism thwarted. These are the themes of Geraldine O'Connell Cusack's novel which recounts the intimate lives of three generations of women who find their fate bound up with that of their troubled nation. The author shows us the poignant fragility of our lives in the face of the relentless march of history.? ? Jack O'Driscoll, screenwriter, National TV Station TG4 About the Author Geraldine O?Connell Cusack was born in the South Bronx of New York City and holds a BA in Political Science from Notre Dame College of Staten Island and an M.ED in Education from La Salle University of New Orleans.
