so-soI struggled with this short book. A Nazi photographer moves with his family to #Bolivia, where he‘s keen on making a documentary of his trek to find a lost city in the jungle. He variously takes 1 or 2 of his 3 daughters. We hear the story from the daughters‘ points of view. Most dramatically, 1 daughter, Monica becomes a rebel supporting Che Guevara‘s cause. Her whereabouts and safety are always an issue of concern for her sisters. Unless I ⬇️
Great timing. I‘ve started reading the ebook, having ditched the audiobook. And right off the bat, here‘s Bolivian food from a village in the jungle.

I.cannot.listen.to.this.narrator.anymore.
He over-pronounces every danged consonant. The “t”s are the worst. Hard “t”s. Imagine hearing the word “titillating” with over-pronounced hard “t”s. There‘s no nuance in his narration and until I googled it, I thought it was annoying AI. And no darned pauses between sentences. Sentences are read closer together than words. I‘m so done. Splurging $2 for the ebook. #foodandlit #Bolivia @Catsandbooks
My next audiobook is for #foodandlit #Bolivia. The narration is…not good…. We‘ll see how far I can make it.

Tonight‘s meal is Silpancho with Llajwa for #FoodAndLit #Bolivia
It‘s potatoes, rice, beef (breadcrumbed and flattened), salad, and spicy sauce. It should have an egg too. But I really hate egg 🤣
It was very tasty!
Cerco de penumbras (circle of shadows?) by 20th-c. Bolivian author Óscar Cerruto is a collection of short stories, mainly with fantasy or ghost story flavours. They were not necessarily very memorable, but I definitely enjoyed them.
