Both covers and spine have minor wear that may be difficult to see in the scans. A modest pen mark of the previous owner's name inside front cover. No other apparent marks. Interior text pages white, bright, and tight. Introduction by Rudolfo Anaya. This is a dual language book with Spanish on the left and English on the right. Ulibarri combines the artistry of oral tradition with his personal approach to the idea of story. Utilizing the author/child point of view, he reveals the memorable experiences of the child to the reader. The child moves through a childhood filled with baroque characters, while the author casually comments on the rites of passage. The result is an interplay and a tension of time and memory, of child and man. Ulibarri is a talented story teller, an expert in a tradition which the people of the Southwest have honed to perfection. In Mi Abuela Fumaba Puros, he addresses his readers as intimate friends, and invites us to travel with him to the world of Rio Arriba, wherein he sketches his characters and the landscape with clear and precise images. He skillfully manipulates time, moving back and forth from the world of the narrator to the world of child, drawing us deeper into that time and universe which he recreates. Life in rural, mountainous New Mexico is revealed in Mi Abuela Fumaba Puros. We rediscover the strong sense of daily life and tradition of the hardy pioneers of the land of Tierra Amarilla and share their joys and tragedies and beliefs. Those who are familiar with Hispanic Southwest culture will recognize the stories of dona Matilde, the horseback ride with death, and the story of El Sanador. Contents in Ten Stories: My Grandma Smoked Cigars, Witcheries or Tomfooleries, My Uncle Cirilo, El Negro Aguilar, Elacio was Elacio, La Kasa K K, Mano Fashico, El Apache, he Went for Nails,and the Penitentes. Professor Ulibarri is well known for his northern New Mexico ranch and village stories. He has joined many others who have spread the story of Hispanic New Mexico culture from the traditional local to the state, to the regional, the national and international levels. Professor Ulibarri has brought dignity and honor to a dignified and honorable tradition with his prose. his poetry, and his fame as an outstanding educator. Contained in these works is the song of life. And that is what New Mexico Hispanic culture is all about. In 1977, at the time of this publication, Professor Sabine R. Ulibarri was Chairman of the Department of Modern and Classical Languages, The University of New Mexico at Albuquerque. Martinez, Dennis (illustratore).…
