Lo Que Trae La Marea/What the Tide Brings

Lo Que Trae La Marea/What the Tide Bringsaf Xánath Caraza
Bag om Lo Que Trae La Marea/What the Tide Brings

Fiction. Latino/Latina Studies. Translated from the Spanish by Steven Holland-Wempe, Sandra Kingery, and the author. "This debut collection is amazing. The finesse of the storytelling is a pleasure on every page. The importance of immigrant issues becomes not a political statement so much as an epic story of all peoples' survival. Although the stories are not linked and take place in various geographies--China, Europe, the United States, and Mexico--still, the continuity remains with the heroine figure. She is a woman who travels through miseries, between the worlds of the living and the spirits. La Llorona's shadow casts a spell on these stories, where loss occurs, but the natural world offers solace, as well as unexpected beauties. This is a book of songs as well as myths."--Denise Low-Weso
