'Neither the old man nor Boga ever said more than was needed. And
yet they understood each other perfectly.' Over the course of a
season, Boga and the old man work side by side on the sandbanks of
the Parana Delta, cutting reeds to sell to local basketweavers. But
when the old man falls sick and dies, Boga abandons himself
entirely to the river and the life of solitary drifting he has long
yearned for. Echoes of John Berger sound throughout the evocative
prose of this great Argentinian writer. A twentieth-century
classic, Southeaster is a central work in Haroldo Conti's oeuvre.
