Justice, My Brother, My Sister:
Life and Death In A Mexican Family
by Roberta Kalechofsky
pbk. 148 pgs
Description
A novel of revenge set in Mexico about family passions of hatred, jealousy and fear, which set in motion the migration of the Donajero family from rural life to an industrial city, and the disintegration of their traditional patterns of peasant life.
As the wife of a brutal husband, Felicita Donajero is unforgettable in her wily use of insanity to protect herself.
As the wronged brother, Ricardo presents a haunting search for a spiritual life which will free him from hating his brother.
Passions shape destiny; geography molds personality, and fate rules the landscape.
