Like Anaya’s, it is a coming-of-age story for Chicana identity. The protagonist is a mestiza, raised in Tarahumara land in northern Mexico, who eventually crosses the US border to live outside of El Paso. At the opening of the novel, an artist paints her (and foreshadows her role) as a brown-skinned woman whose feet and limbs seem to emerge from the earth. She carries seeds with her during her several relocations – to a mining town, to the city of Chihuahua, to Ciudad Juárez, and to El Paso – until she can plant them in her own land.
