Beschreibung
""Silence on the Mountain" has the seductive allure and vivid characters of the finest fiction and the penetration of the most elegant journalism. Mr. Wilkinson's painstaking work has crucial lessons for our government's future role not only in Latin America but in the entire world. Above all, his book serves literature's deepest impulse: to bring forth truth out of silence."--The 2003 pen/Martha Albrand Award for First Nonfiction citation
