Life in a remote Venezuelan village is transformed by a series of travellers seeking buried
treasure.
The Oteros farm sugar cane on the edge of the Venezuelan rainforest. Cut off from the modern
world, life there is uneventful. Until, that is, a succession of travellers arrive in search of Henry
Morgan’s legendary treasure, said to be buried beneath the forest floor …
Miguel Bonnefoy’s colourful tale of a family’s changing fortunes is also the fascinating story of
Venezuela’s development over the course of the 20th century.
