ABOUT THE INVISIBLE MOUNTAIN "The kind of novel you stay up late to finish and lie awake thinking about." - The San Francisco Chronicle "This visionary book beautifully, bravely opens all the old secrets." - Elle On the first day of the century, a small Uruguayan town gathers to witness a miracle and unra...vel its portents: the mysterious reappearance of a lost infant, Pajarita. Later, as a young woman in the capital city—Montevideo, brimming with growth and promise—Pajarita begins a lineage of independent women, from bold poets to clandestine revolutionaries. At once expansive and lush with detail, this debut novel is an intimate exploration of the search for love and authenticity, power and redemption, in the lives of three women, and a penetrating portrait of a small, tenacious nation, Uruguay, shaken in the gales of the twentieth century. "Enchanting, funny, and heartbreaking... extraordinary" - Publishers Weekly "Lush...lyrical...beautifully wrought" - Kirkus Reviews "Marvelous...bold...brings to vivid life the history and culture of Uruguay." - Cristina García, author of Dreaming in Cuban "Exceptional" - Booklist "Rhapsodic" - BookBrowse "Impressive" - Otago Daily Times (New Zealand)
