Of everything I have ever picked up and read, this one had the most affect on me longterm. Anaya's heartwarming tale of culture and spirituality is one that touched my core. It's something that everyone should read when they have a chance. As one of the most influential pieces of Chicano literature of all time, it's almose guaranteed that this is a great read.
