The remote Mexican village of JonotIa lies in the shadow of the rock of TIaloc, named for the ancient god of rain whose spirit has dwelt among its inhabitants for centuries.

In this moving book Gregory G. Reck sets out to document what effect these changes have had on the villagers. He concentrates on a single individual, Celistino de la Cruz, born an indio but forced into a mestizo—or post-conquest —culture, and follows his struggles to cope with and adapt to a new world. Always trying to make money and always exploited, Celistino finally leaves JonotIa; whether his departure signals the dawn of his hopes or the twilight of them remains to be seen. In either case his story is part of the universal drama that is inevitably played out wherever and whenever the past and the future meet in sudden conflict. Vissza
