Set in the post-World War II New Mexico landscape, this seminal work follows young Antonio Márez as he navigates the complexities of his cultural identity under the guidance of Ultima, a curandera who comes to live with his family. Through a blend of spiritual realism and folklore, the narrative explores the tension between traditional Mexican American values and the shifting influences of the modern world.
