Anotácia knihy

A kaleidoscope of departures. In a century-long journey, men and women escape from a Europe in flames to the often convulsive but welcoming shores of Argentina. As Gabriela unveils to her daughters the land of her birth, the country becomes a map of thumbtack flags of flesh and blood. Readers see a revolving door of political parades and moments through the innocent eyes of a child, a rebel, and a mature woman. This is a catharsis at each milestone of motherhood, reflected in the responses of Gabrielas daughters. From Buenos Aires to Jerusalem to Paris and back to Jerusalem, fragile threads link family and tradition. A living willpower guides readers across the desert between generations. Facing Off was first published in Spanish as Al Dar la Cara by Metafora (Buenos Aires, 2010) and selected for display on the Argentine stand at the 2010 Frankfurt Book Fair.
