Review of Blackthorn (2011) by Ty Burr for Boston Globe — 12 Oct 2011
Blackthorn is less interested in realism than in elegy, and in bringing this American folk hero in line with the Latin American places and people with whom he ended his days. Given a choice between the legend and the facts, Gil and Barros make up a new legend - and then gild it with light.
