About this event:
Stop into the Sulzer Library to listen to Luis Alberto Urrea read from, talk about, and sign copies of his new novel, Queen of America! Like his bestseller, The Hummingbird’s Daughter, Queen is based on Urrea's great-aunt Teresita (legendary in Mexico for her healing powers and proclaimed by many there as the “Saint of Cabora”). He spent over two decades researching his subject, drawing from historical accounts and family records, many never before translated.
