Look upon our beloved Mexico?the ancient singers gave her such lovely names:
Navel of the Moon
Foundation of Heaven
Sea-Ringed World
David Bowles stitches together the fragmented mythology of pre–Colombian Mexico into an exciting, unified narrative in the tradition of William Buck’s Ramayana, Robert Fagles’ Iliad, and Neil Gaiman’s Norse Mythology.
“Feathered Serpent / Dark Heart of Sky presents the tales of Mexico’s ancients not as improbable fables but as flesh-and-blood narrative. Great writing, spectacular characters, and a surprising, uplifting ending pertinent to our times. Take that, Book of Revelation!’’—Gustavo Arrellano, author of Taco USA: How Mexican Food Conquered America; columnist for the Los Angeles Times
