Review
...Cristina Henriquez creates a vivid portrait of Panama in transition. -- San Francisco Chronicle, May 7, 2006
Cristina Henríquez writes stories of quiet violence and terrifying beauty. This is a truly exciting debut collection. -- Daniel Alarcón, author of War by Candlelight
The language...feels heartfelt, original and true. A striking new voice, full of empathy, detail and imagination. -- Colum McCann, author of Dancer and This Side of Brightness
These beautiful, affecting stories follow people into moments of profound discovery-about themselves, their families, their culture... -- Bret Anthony Johnston, author of Corpus Christi
These stories, told in a direct and sparse style, are truly unforgettable...I could not put aside this book. -- Isabel Allende
[A] dazzling new talent. Henriquez's voice is artfully simple and unembellished, soft yet quietly piercing... compassionate, tender and fresh. -- Kirkus Reviews, starred review
[Henriquez] is an ancient soul, a zen master, a bruja....I bow deeply and welcome this first collection. -- Sandra Cisneros, author of The House on Mango Street and Caramelo
[Henriquez] writes with a rare delicacy and compassion. Her tales will lodge themselves deep in your heart. -- Cristina Garcia, author of Dreaming in Cuban and Monkey Hunting
