The characters in Las Acacias share the telluric environment of Alberto Gerchunoff's «The Jewish Gauchos of the Pampas , but the life of these colonists is not portrayed as overly bucolic. While nature is hostile and strange to them, the characters exhibit a reverent, respectful attitude toward it as well as an endearing love.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 164\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.38 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e May 06, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45734868484293,"sku":"9781949938012","price":41.69,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/6718\/5605\/files\/NTFPaTVYanFwUWVIMWpjSmZuLy9ydz09.webp?v=1769872343","url":"https:\/\/selloorium.com\/products\/los-judios-de-las-acacias-paperback","provider":"Selloorium","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
