Undercurrents: New Mexico Stories Then and Now【電子書籍】[ Adela Amador ]

＜p＞"Escribe con el corazon en el punto de la pluma" [She writes with her heart on the point of her pen]. Jorge Gabaldo, Palm Springs, CA＜/p＞ ＜p＞"Back to the future. I was taken on a poignant, nostalgic and wonderful voyage, back into the barrio that nurtured me. Thanks, Adela." Jose, Armas, Ph.D., syndicated columnist＜/p＞ ＜p＞"Too many of us rush through life. We never stop to savor the moment, to ponder the lessons of the past or to consider where we're heading as we hurry from one appointment to the next. With disarming simplicity that masks a true depth of perception, Adela Amador reaches beyond the glib and the superficial to tap those deeper veins that give meaning to life. She's a natural-born storyteller, always sharply observant and inherently trustworthy, someone who can laugh at human foibles without demeaning anyone. I'm glad we dragged her out of her beloved kitchen long enough to cast light on New Mexico and all those aspects of our culture and environment that make this such an inspiring place to live. Her 'Southwest Flavor' column consistently draws more fan mail than any other department in New Mexico Magazine. Readers first turned to the column for Adela's recipes, but soon they discovered she could write just as well as she could cook. What perfect ingredients for creative success, magically distilled in these heartfelt essays! " -- Jon Bowman, Editor, New Mexico Magazine＜/p＞ ＜p＞"Nostalgic, modern, sad, happy, funny -- these tales are of memory, remembrance, vitality and change. There are undercurrents, however; not all the memories are glad ones. Life was sometimes hard when Adela was growing up, but she was not one to stay behind and mope; she was far too busy for that. As she says, "We don't need to live in the past, but we need to nourish ourselves with past joys and life's richness." And so it is in this book: family, memories and culture form the background for these stories, yet contemporary life is present too. All in all a look into Adela's kitchen, and her heart." -- Dr. Tey Diana Rebolledo, Professor of Spanish, Dept. of Spanish & Portuguese, University of New Mexico＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。
