About the book

"This is a book in the tradition of indigenous oral storytelling. Martin Prechtel lived for years in the Central Guatemalan village of Santiago Atitlan. Here he interweaves retellings of his personal experience of life in the village and the political horrors of civil war with retellings of the magic and love stories and complexity of sacred Mayan myths"--Provided by publisher.
