«O Lugar da Caveira» is the novel by Tchinguiz Aitmatov published by Dom Quixote in paperback (404 pages, in Portuguese).
The action takes place in the steppes of Central Asia, where a pack of wolves becomes a symbol of the most essential human values in the face of a state policy that celebrates the annihilation of nature as an achievement. Aitmatov argues that ecological plunder is, at bottom, a problem of moral formation of the human being.
This Dom Quixote edition came out in 1995; the original title «Плаха» was published in 1986.
For readers of 20th-century classics and of narrative with ecological and humanist concerns.
