Reviews
"Inventive and extremely well-written. . . . Incredibly moving. . . . A remarkable performance." -- San Francisco Chronicle "Matthiessen has produced, in expertly crafted and sometimes deeply affecting prose, an entertainment full of glittering color, nose-to-nose conflict and heroic gestures." -- The Washington Post Book World "A work approaching the highest art, of the most serious purpose." -- St. Louis Post-Dispatch "A haunting novel. . . . A sardonic wit and a huge fund of compassion illuminate its pages." -- Newsday "A brutal yet compassionate narrative . . . that will remain long in the reader's mind." --Minneapolis Star Tribune

Synopsis
In a malarial outpost in the South American rain forest, two misplaced gringos converge and clash in this novel from the National Book Award-winning author. Martin Quarrier has come to convert the elusive Niaruna Indians to his brand of Christianity. Lewis Moon, a stateless mercenary who is himself part Indian, has come to kill them on the behalf of the local comandante . Out of this struggle Peter Matthiessen creates an electrifying moral thriller-adapted into a movie starring John Lithgow, Kathy Bates, and Tom Waits. A novel of Conradian richness, At Play in the Fields of the Lord explores both the varieties of spiritual experience and the politics of cultural genocide., In a malarial outpost in the South American rain forest, two misplaced gringos converge and clash in this novel from the National Book Award-winning author.

- r***h (108)- Évaluation laissée par l'acheteur.Six derniers moisAchat vérifiéReally happy with this purchase. Both items are in excellent new condition, as described. The packaging was very well done. They were in a nice compact box that fit the books just right and an inner waterproof wrap which i greatly appreciated because we have had a lot of rain lately & unfortunately our mailbox flops open. It was nice to have dry books! Packing slip included. Based on this transaction, i definitely recommend this conscientious seller.
