Book
Queen of America : a novel / Luis Alberto Urrea.
"After the bloody Tomochic rebellion of 1892, young Teresita Urrea, beloved healer and 'Saint of Cabora,' escapes with her father to Arizona. But beseiged by pilgrims in desperate need of her healing powers and pursued by assassins sent by Mexican dictator Porfirio Diaz, she has no choice but to flee the borderlands and embark on an extraordinary journey into the heart of turn-of-the-century America. By turns heartbreaking, uplifting, and riotously funny, this novel tells the story of a young woman coming to terms with her place in a new world."--Publisher.
