Bless me, Ultima by Rudolfo Anaya

blessme

Rudolfo Anaya’s Bless Me, Ultima is about pride and assimilation, faith and doubt. The summer before Antonio Juan Márez y Luna turns seven, an old woman with healing powers comes to live with his family. There is something magical and mystical about Anaya’s coming-of-age story in post-World War II New Mexico. The novel presents a world where everyday life is still full of dreams, legends, prayers, and folkways.

Winner of the Premio Quinto Sol National Chicano Literary Award and a Selected book of The Big Read, a program of the National Endowment for the Arts to encourage reading for pleasure and enlightenment.
