Description

The luminous second collection that cemented Muñoz as a key voice of and for California's Central Valley

From the divergent paths of triplet brothers to a grieving father confronting his mistreatment of his son, these stories interweave a recurring cast of neighborhood characters, many of them in search of escape or release. Lauded for its empathetic portrayals of communities often ignored, The Faith Healer of Olive Avenue won a Whiting Award and an O. Henry Award; it was shortlisted for the Frank O'Connor International Short Story Award as one of the best collections published in English worldwide. A new foreword by author and activist Cherríe Moraga gives testament to Muñoz's status as "the cartographer of a people."
