Culua by Samantha Wood PDF Summary

Book Description: One of Samantha Wood's earliest childhood memories is of her grandfather giving her a wobbly rubber map of Mexico that pulled apart like a jigsaw puzzle and telling her the story of the nomadic Culúa-Mexica who became known as the Aztecs. Suddenly the wanderers were a people with a new identity, a home ...Like her ancestors, Samantha yearns to find a place she can call home. Raised on the enticing glimpses of a dark and magical land conjured up by her Mexican mother's bedtime stories what begins as a visit to her enigmatic grandmother becomes a quest to find out what it means to be Mexican. Samantha's transformation to Samantita isn't quite so simple. Sometimes much more than words get lost in the translation. But as she learns to embrace México verdadero - the real Mexico - she discovers a people who give new meaning to larger than life, the fabulous strong women who rule the roost, the colourful macho men who think they do, and the invincible bonds between family, food and the spirit world. Always an outsider, this nomad at last feels she has come home.
