Potatoes in La Paz

by Grace Carson

Under the flat, diffused light of an overcast midday in La Paz, a street vendor’s cart sits crowded with goods against a backdrop of steep, terraced hillsides. A cluster of fuzzy, orange-brown nectarines rests in a shallow wooden crate, their warm tones against the wet, grey asphalt reflecting the dull sky. Beside the fruit, a few rough, purple potatoes are piled loosely, their earthy skins coated in fine dust. The vendor, partially visible in a bright yellow rain poncho, adjusts a stack of plastic bags, his hands moving with practiced efficiency. In the immediate background, a bus with faded turquoise paint, peeling to reveal rusted metal, idles at the curb, its exhaust blending into the misty air.
