“Rain of Gold” by Victor E. Villasenor

A non-fiction book that reads like a novel. This is a story of a family’s struggle for survival during the Mexican Revolution and their escape to America. The book is written with much candor and reminds me of a folk tale that has been handed down from one generation to another in oral tradition, though it was not.

I “fell in love” with each Grandmother. I love their anecdotes…their timeless wisdom and guidance…their unwavering courage, faith and love….and most of all, I admired their strength! It was wonderful to witness their evolution into the position as the family matriarchs.

My book is littered with “post-it” notes! So many pieces of wisdom to refer back to! It is an adventure in overcoming oppression. A journey that will stay with you long after it’s over. Get it! Read it!
