Our Lives Are the Rivers
Our Lives Are the Rivers: A Novel | Jaime Manrique
2 posts | 1 read
Based on actual events, this sweeping novel tells the life story of a woman who was willing to risk it all for her country and her lover—in whose legacy lies the history of an entire continent. Our Lives Are the Rivers tells the story of beautiful young freedom fighter Manuela Sáenz, and the epic tale of her long love affair with liberator Simón Bolívar. A novel of intoxicating love, passion, and adventure, Jaime Manrique vividly captures a dynamic continent struggling for its own identity.

The Sky Over My Mother‘s House by Jaime Manrique. This is new to me thanks to this week‘s Teach this Poem from the Academy of American Poets.
