Description
From the author of Like Water for Chocolate comes this novel about the much-maligned Malinalli, known as Malinche, the woman who betrayed her people by aiding Cortes and his men. Laura Esquival relies upon new information about Malinalli to show she was more of a mediator between the two cultures. Esquivel describes the intense love between these two very different individuals and shows how this passion was crushed by Cortes's bloodthirstiness and greed.
