Exquisitely written, with beautiful characters and magical imagery. If Cormac McCarthy's books had a baby with Gabriel Garcia Marquez's books, 'The Hummingbird's Daughter' would be one of its esteemed offspring. Absolutely recommended.
P.S. If you liked this book, try 'The Annunciation of Francesca Dunn' by Janis Hallowell.
“Lush, lush, lush writing. An extremely enjoyable read. If the mind could taste, this is absolutely delicious, perfect to the mind's palate...
