Home isn't just a place, it is also a language.'Born in Tijuana, the son of an Anglo woman and a Mexican father, Urrea says that 'Home isn't just a place, it is also a language.' In these six storieseach wandering beneath different kinds of sky, from the thick Mazatlan starry night to the wide open spaces of the Sioux Nation in South DakotaUrrea maps the spiritual geography of what he calls 'home.''I always thought Luis Urrea was six skies rolled into one (I mean that in a good way), and this book proves that he speaks with a multitude of passionate, powerful and hilarious voices. This book is a beautiful kind of crazy.'Sherman Alexie'With this new collection of stories, Luis Urrea makes the short list of essential American writers. His glittering landscapes, which warp and ennoble the human spirit, bring to mind the work of Salman Rushdie. I found myself going back and rereading whole passages; Urrea's got a way with words that raises the bar for the rest of us. What a marvel of a book!'Demetria Martnez'Urrea goes in for the big picture, and there seems to be no world he cannot capture. He writes with wit and ingenuity, and the stories possess a powerful sense of acceleration. With each story I was transported to an intense and fully imagined world.'Robert BoswellLuis Urrea is a novelist, essayist and poet. His books have received The American Book Award for nonfiction, 1998, and The Western States Book Award for Poetry, 1994, and The New York Times named his nonfiction Across the Wire a Notable Book of the Year, 1993. Luis lives in Chicago.
