Husky Eyes

When Ezequiel was diagnosed with AIDS, he was left alone, without family and friends — they turned away from him. His life was filled with contemptuous looks and reproaches. The only thing that helped him cope with the illness was his husky dog Sacha, the cello, and the sudden arrival of his younger brother, who gave him the support, acceptance, and love that Ezequiel had needed all these years… This book is more than just a story about a young man who is suffering from AIDS and reconnects with his younger brother. It is a story that highlights the importance of trust in a family and shows how everything falls apart when you are not accepted. The novella by Argentine writer Antonio Santa Ana "Husky Eyes" was published in 1998 and became a classic of Latin American youth literature.
