Product Information
The adoption of a baby by a couple unable to have children is the point of departure for The Past is an Imperfect Tense, in which B. Kucinski tells the story of a father-son relationship that begins intense and loving and ends up in pieces. The decline begins in the boy's adolescence as he becomes involved with marijuana, amphetamines and crack, a process described by the narrator as a frenzied pursuit of an artificial paradise. Three factors come together in the story of the boy's life: adoption, drug addiction and racism. The father - who is also the narrator - asks himself, Would it have been possible at any point to alter the course of this story? Or was it all destined to be? While Kucinski's treatment of the story is meticulous and subtle, he writes in a terse style that pulls no punches. The result is a poignant text that confirms Kucinski's place as one of the most outstanding writers of today. B. Kucinski has received Brazil's Jabuti Award on two occasions and was awarded the Brazilian National Library Literary Prize in 2014 for the best short story collection (Voce Vai Voltar Pra Mim). He was also a finalist for the International Literature Award in 2014 and was shortlisted for the International IMPAC Dublin Literary Award for the English version of his novel K in 2015.

- c***c (460)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoA reliable and professional seller offering a wide range of items. Not always the cheapest option but certainly a store upon which you can depend. My goods were dispatched promptly, packaged appropriately and, upon receipt, found to be exactly as described. Communication throughout the process was good and I'd have no hesitation in purchasing from here in the future.Possibility (Wonder & Imagination) 500 Piece Jigsaw Puzzle by Paperblanks Hardco (N° 146371979206)
- 3***a (328)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Mese scorsoAcquisto verificatoThe book was sent well packed and arrived in good condition. The seller was extremely supportive and when l explained that this book did not contain the content that l was looking for l was given a refund which happened very quickly and l offered to send the book back but the seller told me to keep it which l thought was very generous of the seller. I have bought books from this seller before and always had good service and in the future l will purchase again. Thanks to a very good seller.
- u***D- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoThe item was promptly dispatched in time frame and was in very high quality condition when received. The recipient's name was unfortunately omitted although the address was correct. Very professionally packaged to ensure pristine condition of item. Wish the seller would communicate and reply more frequently to messages if possible on eBay. Otherwise good service overall. I recommend buying from The Nile for competitive prices.The Three Kingdoms of Korea: Lost Civilizations by Richard D. McBride II Hardcov (N° 135297480023)
