Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Rooted in a Chicana/Latina/indigenous geographic and cultural sensibility, the stories of flesh to bone take on the force of myth, old and new, giving voice to those who experience the disruption and violence of the borderlands. In these nine tales, silva metes out a furious justice--a whirling, lyrical energy--that scatters the landscape with bones of transformation, reclamation, and healing.  &nbsp.An original and authentic voice.with a unique vision. A blend of indigenismo and folktales retold in a modern vein.these stories come from the clouds, from spirits of ancient ancestors, from the oblique corners of the human consciousness.A new and engaging duende is born. -- Alejandro Murguia, author of This War Called Love  If Chagall had written, he would have painted words in the fierce brushstrokes of ire'ne lara silva's stories.
