About this title: As an Afro-Puerto Rican child in the New York barrio, Marta Moreno Vega paid little heed to the Catholic-style images with foreign names her parents turned to in times of trouble. But as an adult, in search of a religion that would reflect her cultural heritage, Marta was led to the Way of the Saints. "The Altar of My Soul" lays before readers an electrifying story of one woman's journey to her sacred self.
