Have you ever tried finding a book that seems to be nowhere?

I'm doing a deep dive on Honduran literature but I can't find this book anywhere online. I'm starting to think the only way to read it might be to book a plane to Honduras and search physical libraries.

Thanks for trying, anon.

That's not even the most obscure book I'm searching for. Mimi's sister Rubenia also wrote a book but I can't find the title, just a random Spanish Wikipedia page that says "Rubenia wrote something".
