The Burial of Georgio Sanchez

The Burial of Georgio Sánchez draws the reader into a world of complex relationships and divided loyalties within a small community, as the accidental death of Georgio Sánchez leads to the substitution of his body for that of the only witness to an earlier killing. The chronologies of events, combined with the characters' recollections of past incidents, create an evocation of their passions, self-sacrifice, and necessary deceit. The narrative is presented in the second person, and the story is told from a variety of viewpoints.
