Editor's Pick

Mexican folklore mixes with magical realism in this Mexican Revolution-era epic
"Can your family boast of having a Saint in its lineage? Mine definitely does not, but Luis Alberto Urrea took the story of his great-great-great aunt, Teresita Urrea, Saint of Cabrora, and her mystical healing powers and turned it into a beautifully written novel set during the tumultuous and lawless Mexican Revolution. It is magical realism at its absolute best, written with the love that only a relative can bestow. Urrea’s narration allows the story to flow without missing a single beat."
—Mariana P., Audible Editor

The author says this book took 20 years to write - and it shows. Thoroughly engrossing, beautifully written, and fully realized with a depth of detail that makes lesser writing seem thin and contrived. The narration by the author is a great bonus.

Engrossing story, richly detailed

My fiance and I listened to this on roadtrips this summer. We fell in love with the story and were sad when it was finally over. Not a book you read just once!

Definitely Must Hear/read this!

Hummingbird's Daughter just very well be my favorite novel of all time. I have read it several times, and never tire of the story. To hear it read by the author made it even better. All the humor and intention behind his work comes right through, and I found myself laughing out loud several times.

Bravo on such an accomplished and beautiful story. I can't praise it enough!

One of my favorite books of all time

Luis Urrea is currently my favorite author and narrator. I have listened to this book as well as The House of Broken Angels and his narration really brings his written word to life. I listened to both of this books which is rarity. His books are complex and filled with all sorts of fascinating characters! They are not meant to be read casually.

A Story Well Told
