“It is there that the beautiful Catalina Guzman meets Andrés Ascencio, a retired general of the Mexican revolution and a man almost twenty years her senior. She has 'never seen anyone with eyes so alive, nor known anyone so sure of himself' and she falls blindly in love. It is not until they are married that Catalina discovers his ruthlessness and the violence surrounding him. As he struggles for political control she matches his strong will with increasing acts of defiance that draw them into a furious dance for survival.” Copyright © 1991 Very Good VTG Condition: The book has all its pages and I didn’t find any writing on them.
