Salsa and chips

In these luminous novelas, Daniel Reveles serves up the vast banquet of life. Peppered with magical realism and cultural nuance, triumph and despair, passion and spice, each story is a delectable meal for the heart and soul. Meet El Flako, a hopeless bungler, and his exasperated compadres; Father Ruben, who serves both God and his prodigious appetite with equal devotion; Dona Lala, the fantastic witch offering custom-brewed spells and incantations; and Treenie Contreras, a slippery scoundrel who will walk on water for a fee. Come and pay a visit to Tecate, where the air is like wine, the smiles are free, and day-to-day miracles have the power to change destiny.
