Victor Villaseņor's own family tells this beautifully written story of poverty, immigration, struggle and success. The book focuses on three generations of Villaseņor's kin, their spiritual and cultural roots back in Mexico, their immigration to California and their overcoming poverty, prejudice and economic exploitation. The mysticism so prevalant in the Hispanic culture is woven throughout.
