Anna Lanyon

Anna Lanyon's Malinches Conquest was awarded and widely translated, and was followed by The New World of Martin Corts. Fire and Song again shows her as a scholar whose chronicles from contemporary testimonies are so vivid that readers feel witness to the dramatic events and intimate moments of mostra altro individual lives, which are woven deftly into the fabric of their times to illuminate the bigger historical picture. Fire and Song presents a world without the human rights and tolerance we take for granted today; yet the insights remain all too pertinent - into the power of faith, the tangled knot of religious and political interests, and human yearning for identity, belonging and spirituality. mostra meno
