MID, SEC: Novels about South America

[Rena Deutsch <renadeutsch@WORLDNET.ATT.NET>]

A huge thank you to everyone who sent me suggestions for novels about
Africa.  Now, I need a list of novels about South America (any country).
Any autobiography/memoir would be okay, too. This would be for 9th graders
of mixed reading ability. I have found many which are about Central America
and Mexico, but am having trouble with South American continent. What I
have so far is:
Isabel Allenda -- House of The Spirits
Death in the Andes -- Llosa
Of Love and Other Demons -- Marquez

I think these books are possibly too "advanced".

Any suggestions? TIA
