What do the conditions mean?
Our conditions mean the following:
- New - a brand new book
- Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
- Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
- Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
- Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

La reportera de una revista de frivolidades es enviada por su jefe a cubrir la aparición de un ángel en una de las barriadas más pobres de la ciudad. Emprende la tarea a regañadientes porque la tienen sin cuidado los asuntos religiosos y la aburre sobremanera un tema tan manido, y ni siquiera sospecha hasta qué punto se va a ver involucrada en una brutal cadena de acontecimientos que escaparán a su control y a su racionalidad.
¿Quién es y de dónde viene el supuesto ángel, ese muchacho perplejo y de asombrosa belleza a quien la fe de los habitantes del barrio mantiene encerrado entre una cueva? ¿Qué lo une a esa reportera que de él se enamora, a la madre que lo busca en agonía, al sacerdote que intenta destruirlo, a la médica que pretende hospitalizarlo, a las mujeres que lo bañan, lo alimentan y lo convierten en supremo objeto de veneración?
Sin caer en el socorrido "realismo mágico", Restrepo explora los abismos de la religiosidad popular y acompaña los pasos de una mujer que se atreve a adentrarse en el luminoso y a la vez pavoroso territorio de lo sagrado.
Dulce Compañía recibió los premios Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz y el Prix France Culture, otorgado por la crítica literaria francesa.
