Meer over het boek

In 1519, Magellan and his five ships set out for the Spice Islands on a trip to circle the globe. In this rich, sensuous novel of robust prose and earthy humor, a new writer from Uruguay spins a tale of the real men behind history's list of names. A marvelous novel about explorers who face suffering and death, and about the life-giving power of the imagination.
