註釋

The following collection of stories takes place, for the most part, in the border region of South Texas known as the Rio Grande Valley. In these stories, I explore how one comes to faith - specifically, Catholicism as practiced by Mexican-Americans in this region - in childhood, and how, in adulthood, this faith is tried, how it is manifested in everyday life, and how, as a result of these trials, it inevitably strengthens, evolves or dies away. These characters, then, are at various points on the path to believing and, as such, wrestle with an understanding of grace as set forth by the examples of their mothers and other believers around them.
