The Hummingbird's Daughter
A Historical Fiction Novel by Luis Alberto Urrea
Book 1 of the The Hummingbird's Daughter Series
The prizewinning writer Luis Alberto Urrea's long-awaited novel is an epic mystical drama of a young woman's sudden sainthood in late 19th-century Mexico.
It is 1889, and civil war is brewing in Mexico.
A 16-year-old girl, Teresita, the illegitimate but beloved daughter of the wealthy and powerful rancher Don Tomas Urrea, wakes from the strangest dream-a dream that she has died.
Only it was not a dream.
This passionate and rebellious young woman has arisen from death with a power to heal-but it will take all her faith to endure the trials that await her and her family now that she has become the Saint of Cabora.
The Hummingbird's Daughter is a vast, hugely satisfying novel of love and loss, joy and pain.
