The lovers can't touch each other, they live a full day of time zones apart, and their only possibility of seeing each other is through a screen. And yet their connection is electric-\"at least for our narrator. She cant stop thinking about this man, and that obsession makes the whole world its metaphor.A\u0026amp;nbsp \u003cem\u003eYour Cross in the Desert Sky\u003c\/em\u003e  is a love affair that is consummated repeatedly, but never in person, and a collision that only one party may feel. In this territory of did they or didnt they, Sanin roams her own history; the meaning of desire; and how we perform intimacy, seduction, and entirely new selves on social media, in bullfights, and on the page. The sex is charged, but so is the demand to look at everything-\"from Macbeth to the Panama Canal to Jesus's shroud-\"as a way to understand who we are, and how werelate to each other and our mortality.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Carolina Sanin","offers":[{"title":"Charco Press |  Paperback \/ softback | Trade paperback (US) |  2024-11-15","offer_id":45663904071935,"sku":"9781913867638","price":25.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0329\/9075\/7001\/files\/BNCImageAPI_4b4907d8-a9f9-470f-a364-c6eab796e216.jpg?v=1719025452","url":"https:\/\/riverbookshop.com\/products\/9781913867638","provider":"River Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
