Cuentos del Cañón is a series of a dozen stories set in or near the same canyon that is home to her first novel El Hermano. We feel the palpable agony of the parents of an infant victim of the evil eye, the terror of the victims of realistic nightmares, and the wonder of a youth shoved to safety by his cousin who is actually in France. The Devil appears in the middle of a dance, an entire village disappears, Saint Death teaches humans life lessons, and a serpent that nightmares are made of exists in a corner of Sangre de Cristos - these are a few of the stories you'll find in this collection by award-winning story-teller, Carmen Baca. Señora Baca gives her own twist to several folk tales and legends told by her elders and ancestors through oral tradition and creates others that are new additions to New Mexico literature. She takes both human and phantasmagorical characters through life's experiences and emotions in each story and makes their experiences truly credible.
