My Land Sings
by Rudolfo Anaya
"As a boy, I loved to hear people tell stories. In the evening, after the supper dishes were done, we would sit around the kitchen table and listen to the elders. Storytelling time was always a magical time. I had a favorite uncle who really knew how to tell a story, and when he came to visit, the evening became a storytelling feast." Consummate storyteller Rudolfo Anaya draws on the rich Hispanic and Native American folklore of the Rmo Grande Valley of new Mexico to tell these enchanting stories. Meet Dulcinea, who dances with the devil, and Lupe, who encounters the ghostly la Llorona one dark night. Rudolfo Anaya, "the most widely read Mexican-American" ( Newsweek ), has written ten captivating stories set in the Southwest. Memorable characters and evocative tales that reflect the Hispanic and Native American heritage of the United States combine to make this a book that will be treasured.
