Tome is a small, outwardly sleepy hamlet in central New Mexico. In
Ana Castillo's hands, however, it stands wondrously revealed as a
place teeming with life and with all manner of collisions: the past
with the present, the real with the supernatural, the comic with
the horrific, the Native American with the Latino and the Anglo,
and the women with the men. With her talkative, intimate voice and
stylistic narrative freedom, Castillo relates the story of two
crowded decades in the life of a Chicano family. "Engaging . . .
the author tells an important story and she tells it with
inventiveness and verve."--Washington Post Book World
