Produktinformationen zu „South of Centre (ePub)“

An intriguing saga of lost love and hidden family connections unfolds amidst myths and superstitions.

Clorinda is a solitary young woman who freelances as a seamstress in a small desert town where things rarely change. Friendless and eccentric, she dresses in her 'calendar wardrobe' as she collects donations of used clothing from which she creates simple works of art.

Clorinda becomes hopelessly distracted when an elderly gentleman moves in across the street. He is elegant and worldly and he looks like Clark Gable from the movie poster downtown. Obsessed, she sets off to know more, and when he finally befriends her, the story of his life and the truth behind their relationship is slowly revealed.

With the chance that it may be lost forever, the biggest secret hides behind a simple marker at the old man's tomb and is caught among the crazy threads of Clorinda's weaving.

Dipping into some of Chile's rich history around the time of Pinochet's regime, SOUTH OF CENTRE unravels through multiple narratives and is doused in magic realism. The story raises questions about social justice and other things that we may never quite get to the bottom of.

Autoren-Porträt von Edie Ayala

Edie Ayala is a baby boomer from a small logging town near the Canadian Rockies. As a girl, she once broke into a neighbour's house to play on their typewriter. She was the creative fort-builder, the abandoned mine-shaft explorer and the tree climber. She has never lost this spirit of curiosity and the search for the small things that might change a day... or a life. Just before Y2K, she made a trip to South America and it was a turning point. Married to a Chilean from the Atacama region, they decided to make Santiago, Chile their home and they've been there ever since. Their grown children are all settled in different cities in Canada and the UK.Edie writes character-driven novels. She's a fan of quirky. A people-watcher, she might find inspiration from someone at a bus stop or a grocery store. Once in awhile, as if from nowhere, a compelling new character appears out of the page itself, and hijacks the process.Edie spends her free time reading non-fiction books and listening to podcasts that present a twist in the traditional interpretation of historical events. She is a fan of authors such as José Saramago, Barbara Kingsolver, Anthony Doer, Alix Olin, Louis de Barnieres, Hernan Rivera Letelier and David Sedaris.
