Book recommendation to anyone who has traveled to Paraguay or Argentina or is interested in South America. This book is has it all -- dark folklore, dark powers (magic), historical context (dictatorships and economic hardships), words in Guarani, terere and Iguazu Falls. Also, if you liked House of Spirits by Isabel Allende, you will love this book. This book will stay with me for years. It gets deep into your mind, and doesn't let you go (in a good way).
