By the river Piedra I sat down and wept - Coelho, Paulo; Clarke, Alan RR. (New Delhi : Harper Collins Publishers India, 2006)
"The story of a young Spanish woman, Pilar, and her encounter with her lost love, an unnamed spiritual seeker who comes to worship the feminine face of God. Clarke's translation is, as usual, somewhat hurried and condensed as if he's impatient with Coelho's admittedly belabored and self-consciously poetical style"
