Corazon and the Mestiza

Fiction

“What do we do with all the disheartening news around us? To avoid exposure to so much hardship, some people use the anesthesia of busyness. Corazon and the Mestiza takes the opposite approach. It uses the personification of Nicaragua to tell a redemptive story of struggle, love, perseverance, and hope. Anyone looking for examples of putting intensely jumbled emotions into clear expressions will find this an enjoyable read. The numerous references to nature are a bonus.”
