The Jaguar Smile: A Nicaraguan Journey
- Used Book in Good Condition
â€œI did not go to Nicaragua intending to write a book, or, indeed, to write at all: but my encounter with the place affected me so deeply that in the end I had no choice.â€ So notes Salman Rushdie in his first work of nonfiction, a book as imaginative and meaningful as his acclaimed novels. In The Jaguar Smile, Rushdie paints a brilliantly sharp and haunting portrait of the people, the politics, the terrain, and the poetry of â€œa country in which the ancient, opposing forces of creation and destruction were in violent collision.â€ Recounting his travels there in 1986, in the midst of Americaâ€™s behind-the-scenes war against the Sandinistas, Rushdie reveals a nation resounding to the clashes between government and individuals, history and morality.
