Rito~uma of the Andes (2012) ISBN: 4000220713

The rugged landscape seems almost like a character itself, shaping the characters' lives and conflicts. I wonder how much the author's own experience or knowledge of the region influenced this vivid backdrop.

There were moments where I wanted more action, but I also appreciated the detailed exploration of characters' inner lives. Was this deliberate to build tension or character development?

The blend of personal and political seems seamless, but I’m curious whether this was inspired by real events or a stylistic choice to highlight the connection between the two.
