Their speaker straddles two worlds: between Argentina and Uruguay, between Buenos Aires and the small town of Colonia, at once of this place and passing through, both foreigner and daughter of the river. In short lyrics pared down to what is left when love and hope have gone, Draper documents overlapping layers of time, stitched together by desire, beauty, longing, tragedy, and loss.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Melina Draper\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1597099732\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781597099738\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Red Hen Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/15\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 88\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.95h x 6.12w x 0.27d","brand":"Melina Draper","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44068726538495,"sku":"9781597099738","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_05e1047d-2386-48e7-aadb-c4831d65f20d.jpg?v=1685420652","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/later-the-house-stood-empty-melina-draper-9781597099738","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
