Good. It's your turn now.

From Apennines to the Andes by Edmondo de Amicis

OK Name a noble prize winner's novel that has a river's name in it which the area and peoples are a currently hot topic..

Hint: the river was considered the border between 2 continents

[BleAivano]

I have no idea really but there is supposed to be a river in South America which is supposed to be the border between
Central (belongs to North) America and South America. I definitely don't know who the author is.

As for the river I guess is that there is a river named Rio Grande and that it, is the said border river between North and South America.

I would guess the countries are Russia and Ukraine, which would be the Dnieper river, still wracking my brain to see if I can recall a novel with Dnieper in the title though.

[janvanvurpa]

"was" and "continents".. And Tavarich Anfield is close but no cigar...wrong river.

Och det är inte Slussen

Rio Grande is border for 2 countries part if the way but Mexico is in North America.

Besides what's the TITLE of the book with the name of this river in the title.

I bet zako85 knows in a heartbeat..

There is the River Don that flows into the Sea of Azov at the head of the Black Sea through Rostov, is there a novel with this in the title?
