"VICUÑA, Chile — Vicuña, the birthplace of Chile's first Nobel laureate, writer Gabriela Mistral, is a dusty little town in the north of the country with colorful facades and cracked cobblestone squares.

The breeze fans its streets, billowing curtains out across empty sidewalks, and street sellers shrink away from the oppressive desert heat, taking their jams and sugar-coated papaya slivers into the shade of covered markets."
