Coles Che's Last Embrace: A Novel at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
A contemporary artist is out to win a portrait prize by sketching a Che Guevara rebel from the old Australian colony in Paraguay. The artist's brother is troubled by doubts about the rebel's heroic identity and feels obliged to investigate. Set largely in South America, the novel explores divergent approaches to the truth in the wilds of Bolivia where Che sought to ignite a widespread revolution. The investigation ends in Sydney where Che's ambitious dreams are still revered and the prize will soon be awarded. The counter-factual mysteries to be unraveled mirror South America's own ingenious literary form, magic realism, a form reflecting the post-modern world's richly-imagined but often bizarre perceptions.
