Voices of the Desert
Scheherazade, bound to the caliph who executes each wife after one night, wins another dawn each time with a story, and the book follows her from inside that bargain. Piñón gives her an inner life and a political intelligence that the tales' own frame does not. It won the Jabuti Prize for the novel.
