<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Includes a reading group discussion guide.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Cuando Malinalli conoce a Hernán Cortés, asume que se trata del propio Dios Quetzalcóatl que regresa a liberar a su pueblo. Los dos se enamoran apasionadamente, pero este amor pronto es destruido por la desmedida sed de conquista, poder y riqueza de Cortés. <p/> A lo largo de la historia de México Malinalli/Malinche ha sido conocida por su traición al pueblo indio. Pero recientes investigaciones históricas han demostrado que Malinalli fue la mediadora entre dos culturas, la hispánica y la indígena; y entre dos lenguas, el español y el náhuatl. <p/> Lo que Esquivel ha hecho en esta novela es desafiar la mitología tradicional mediante un retrato muy temperamental del Adán y la Eva de la cultura mestiza, Cortés y Malinalli, con la caída del imperio azteca como telón de fondo. Contada con el lirismo de la tradición cantarina y pictórica del náhuatl, Laura Esquivel nos brinda un mito fundacional de la cultura híbrida del Nuevo Mundo y una extraordinaria historia de amor.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"[an] amazing story."<P> -- "San Francisco Chronicle"<br><br>"Ambitious and inventive."<P> -- "Los Angeles Times"<br><br>"Elegant and simple prose."<P> -- "New York Post"<br><br>"Esquivel puts imaginative flesh on the bones of legend."<P> -- "The Boston Globe"<br><br>"Lyrical."<P> -- "The New York Times"<br><br>"There's something gentle, mystical, yet strong about Laura Esquivel."<P> -- "The Miami Herald"<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Laura Esquivel was born in Mexico City in 1950.
