I've never read a book like this before. It's almost like reading poetry. I love the way Cisneros writes and plan to read more of her books.
From the author of the widely acclaimed The House on Mango Street comes a story collection of breathtaking range and authority, whose characters give voice to the vibrant and varied life on both sides of the Mexican border. From a young girl revealing secrets only an eleven-year-old can know to a witch woman circling above the village on a predawn flight, the women in these stories offer tales of pure discovery, filled with moments of infinite and intimate wisdom.

Pertinent stories of women on both sides of the Mexican border.
