<br/><br/> RITES is Perera's portrait of growing up as a Jewish boy in the exotic and violent world of Guatamala in the forties. Victor Perera is one of those rare writers who need never suffer the uncertainties of translation, for besides his fluency in both English and Spanish, he has both a Latin American and a North American sensibility. RITES is another fine example of how affectingly he can cross from one to the other, bringing all his insights with him.
