"Hace dos días que andamos sobre el armazón del planeta, olvidados de la Historia y hasta de las oscuras migraciones de las eras sin crónicas. [...] Lo que se abre ante nuestros ojos es el mundo anterior al hombre."

Huyendo de una existencia vacía y rutinaria en la ciudad de Nueva York, un compositor viaja con su amante hasta un poblado perdido en las profundidades de una selva en Sudamérica en busca de instrumentos primitivos. El protagonista remonta el río Orinoco hasta sus orígenes y va descubriendo los estratos temporales de la humanidad, mediante una regresión en el tiempo en la que al mismo tiempo irá descubriéndose a sí mismo. Allí tendrá que decidir si quiere permanecer en un mundo primitivo, carente de bienes materiales pero donde ha encontrado la felicidad, o retornar a la civilización.

Los pasos perdidos es una profunda reflexión sobre el mundo moderno y el estado de la humanidad vista a través del lente del realismo mágico y narrada en un estilo barroco que Carpentier lleva al límite, como ningún otro escritor podría. Una obra maestra.

"En esencia, el protagonista de la novela ha enfrentado el drama eterno de la toma de una decisión que implica la ejercitación de su albedrío, el gran desafío que entraña la práctica de la libertad del individuo... La singularidad del valor de lo artístico radica en que esa conclusión y encrucijada sigan siendo pertinentes para los que hoy leemos la novela..." Del prólogo de Leonardo Padura

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Translated into twenty languages and published in more than fourteen Spanish editions, The Lost Steps, originally published in 1953, is Alejo Carpentier's most heralded novel.
A composer, fleeing an empty existence in New York City, takes a journey with his mistress to one of the few remaining areas of the world not yet touched by civilization - the upper reaches of a great South American river. The Lost Steps describes his search, his adventures, and the remarkable decision he makes in a village that seems to be truly outside history.

Flexible stick toy. Dogs enjoy carrying it around. Squeaks. We have had one for years. It is still in great shape but bought 2 more as I have 3 dogs and all enjoy them. I can toss this in the house.

Great fun & strong!!!
Size: Large (Pack of 1), Style: Stick Large
These are the best sticks ever! Our dogs chew and slobber all over these for sometimes an hour at a time. They like the “give” texture when they chew it. Imagine an indestructible, gummy bear! Because of their softness, they don’t end up with sharp edges or texture, although they are sturdy, and very durable. We have had these for our two dogs for close to a month now and it is their go to indoor to stick. The gentle squeak is not loud and obnoxious, but a playful sound that has them coming back for more with each chomp! If you love your dogs, this is the cheese stick for them. He’s also make an excellent fetch stick as they can go inside or outside. They wash off easily with water. This is a great investment, especially if you’ve been wasting your money replacing toys for strong jawed dogs!

New favorite toy!
I’ve bought this toy in the past and it lasted a long time. Yes, eventually Tigger did tear it apart (took a very long time) which is why I ordered him a new one. I love that this toy is perfect size for my 10lb Maltipoo. It’s not super hard like other ones I’ve bought in the past. Easy to wash once too much slobber has gotten on it. Just wash it by hand. It squeaks a lot which just takes getting used to if you love your pup having fun with it lol.
