	2	Fuentes, Carlos; Peden, Margaret Sayers (Translated by) Distant Relations New York Farrar Straus Giroux 1983 0374518130 / 9780374518134 Reprint, 1987 Trade Paperback Fine 225 pp.; 22 cm. First published, 1980, under title: Una Familia lejana. Translated from the Spanish. Tight, clean copy. "During a long, lingering lunch at the Automobile Club de France, the elderly Comte de Branly tells a story to a friend, unnamed until the closing pages, who is in fact the first-person narrator of the novel. Branly's story is of a family named Heredia: Hugo, a noted Mexican archaeologist, and his young son, Victor, whom Branly met in Cuernavaca and who became his house guest in Paris. There they are gradually drawn into a mysterious connection with the French Victor Heredia and his son, known as Andre. There is a hard-edged emphasis on the theme of relations between the Old World and the New, as Branly's twilit, Proustian existence is invaded and overcome by the hot, chaotic, and baroque proliferation of the Caribbean jungle. / Carlos Fuentes, born in Panama in 1928, has taught at Columbia, Harvard, Princeton, and many other universities. He is the author of more than a dozen novels--including, most recently, Inez (2002) and The Years with Laura Díaz (2000)--as well as several works of nonfiction. In 1987, he was awarded the Cervantes Prize, the highest honor given to a Spanish-language writer. Mr. Fuentes divides his time between Mexico City and London, and lectures frequently in the United States." - Publisher. Price: 4.95 USD
