Synopsis
The seventies are over. All across America, the overgrown kids of the middle class are getting their acts together -- and getting older. The once-tight Chicano community of Chamisaville is long gone, and the Anglo power-brokers control almost everything.

From the Back Cover
"Transcendentally profound, also achingly funny...like a wonderful poem, or a great restaurant."
-- Los Angeles Times Book Review
"An epic scope, a wide-screen background, a large and varied cast of charming eccentrics and truly rotten villains."
-- The Washington Post
"Nichols makes us yearn for heroes, saviors of the land, preservers of stability, natural beauty, integrity of relationships among friends, spouses, parents, and children."
-- The Cleveland Plain Dealer
About the Author
John Nichols's New Mexico Trilogy, inaugurated in 1974 with the publication of The Milagro Beanfield War, has grown from regional stature to national appeal, from literary radicals to cult classics. Beloved for his compassionate, richly comic vision and admired for his insight into the cancer that accompanies unbridled progress, Nichols is the author of nine novels and six works of nonfiction. He lives in northern New Mexico.
