"This is a book of several stories about life in Mexico.. the society.. and the people, the government and the hopes and dreams as well as the poverty, sadness, and religious life of the people.. It was a good book, teaching me more about the country other then the typical drugs, smuggling, etc.. Took a long time to read, as my eyes are going bad and I need an operation.. This is not good for a person like me, who loves and lives to read!!"
