Alburquerque |
Note: ""Alburquerque" is a rich and tempestuous book, full of love and compassion, the complex and exciting skullduggery of politics, and the age-old quest for roots, identity, family. . . . There is a marvelous tapestry of interwoven myth and magic that guides Anaya's characters' sensibilities, and is equally important in defining their feel of place. Above all, in this novel is a deep caring for land and culture and for the spiritual well-being of people, environment, landscape."--John Nichols, author of "The Milagro Beanfield War: A Novel" ." . . "Alburquerque" portrays a quest for knowledge. . . . It is a novel about many cultures intersecting at an urban, power-, and politics-filled crossroads, represented by a powerful white businessman, whose mother just happens to be a Jew who has hidden her Jewishness, . . . and a boy from the barrio who fathers a child raised in the barrio but who eventually goes on to a triumphant assertion of his cross-cultural self."--"World Literature Today" ""Alburquerque" fulfills two important functions: it restores the missing R to the name of the city, and it shows off Anayas powers as a novelist."--Alan Cheuse, National Public Radio |
