The Jag Review: July 2013
http://thejagreview.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
Tuesday, July 30, 2013. Gabriela and The Widow. Publisher: Coffee Town Press. The story begins with Gabriela, a fourteen-year-old Mixteca from Mexico, as she and her mother journey on foot through the war-torn country. Okay, for those of you like me, who do not know what Mixteca means, Wikipedia defines it as indigenous Mesoamerican peoples inhabiting the Mexican states of Oaxaca, Guerrero and Puebla). La Viuda is an eccentric ninety-two year old woman desperately trying to capture her past on paper.
