A New York Times Notable Book.""A complex, engaging novel...

Sapogonia will establish Castillo as one of our finest Chicana novelists."" --Rudolfo Anaya

The author of So Far From God, Ana Castillo confronts the complex issues of race and identity facing those of mixed heritage through the struggles of Maximo Madrigal, an expatriate of Sapogonia, the metaphorical homeleand of all mestizos. Subtly political, it demonstrates how warring blood within a single body resists any peaceful resolution.
