Descripción de contraportada

The young occupy a territory of their own, a foreign land inaccessible to nostalgia and regret. In these eloquent, arresting stories, an assortment of exotic youth send tremors through the foundations of the established world: four summer students interrupt a once--famous artist's retreat from society; a naive job seeker shakes a frustrated employee out of middle--aged complacency; and a high school student's safety is threatened by her teacher's passion for the Riel Rebellion. Unsentimental, often funny, rarely nostalgic, each story of?he Young in Their Country's a complete world.
