Book Description

A famous Chilean-American mystery writer disappears in the Miami airport and her husband seeks help. The case is given to a detective in Mexico who underestimates the consequences of this task. All the clues she has lie with the men who she has been with: her husband, an aloof Mexican writer and a revolutionary man who was her lover. Seeking to understand the reasons behind this mystery, the detective emulates the personality of the disappeared writer and her characters.

Very Latin American.......2003-09-13

This book was a perfect choice for me for two reasons: It is a brilliant story about how women feel when they get fed up with living up to what society tells them to do - and even more so in a Latin American country. And also it describes the exact fascination with Mexico that I am experiencing as a foreigner residing in it. The environment, the traditions, the views, the sounds and the sabor. All in all an excellent book!

Great ! buensima as always..........2000-08-06

As in every book from Marcela Serrano you get involved since the first pages and the story transports you to her world. This book will show you the diferences from every latin american country and their beauty. This was the third book from Serrano that I read, and today I'm finishing the last one. She's great!

feminist detective fiction.......2000-06-22

Nuestra Senora de la Soledad is a fabulously written detective novel with a twist. It graciously transcends the pre-established boundaries of detective fiction. While containing all of the key elements of the traditional detective novel, Nuestra Senora de la Soledad endows them with a new vitality. This novel, rich in dualities of all sorts, takes place in both Chile and Mexico. The detective, a single mother, self-identifies with the object of her investigation (the "victim") throughout the novel. The "victim" is a refreshingly free-spirited middle-aged woman author who has disappeared, almost without a trace. The author uses metafiction throughout the novel to not only retell past events, but also to foretell the future. The result is an entrancing novel that is quick to read but leaves a lasting impression. This is a novel that the reader will ponder long after the last page has been turned. A fabulous work!

Product Description

California Mission Nuestra Senora De La Soledad 10" x 13" Paper Model. Perfect for 4th grade mission projects. This model can be cut-out and built into a 3D model. The Mission Nuestra Senora de la Soledad is the 13th mission founded in California. It was founded on October 9, 1791 by Friar Fermin Lasuen. Named for the one of the many designations of the Virgin Mary. It is reported that when the Portola expedition arrived in 1769 in search of the port of Monterey they found a native who used the word Soledad or so it sounded. Two years later, Father Serra talked to a woman and upon asking her name she replied a word sounding like Soledad. From these chance occurrences, the location of the thirteenth Franciscan mission came to be known as Soledad which was incorporated into the name of the mission."
