La ?¡Nsula De Machos Torunos (Spanish Edition)

In 1968 a young man migrates from the glorified colony of Puerto Rico to the mainland US to flee a dysfunctional domestic, intent on becoming a Catholic priest. The monastery turns out to be everything but the spiritual oasis he hoped for. When he leaves the religious life, another form of abusive, racist tyranny awaits him. J. Delgado Figueroa is a Puerto Rican writer, the author of novels such as Our Father Takes a Bride and That Other Plague, in English, and La noche de los muertos and Arena que la vida se llevó in Spanish. His award-winning plays have been produced in the US, and his short stories have appeared in national publications. His nonfiction study The Rhetoric of Change has been hailed as the best analysis of contemporary Hispanic political oratory in English.
