Book Reviews of So Far from God

Book Review: A Book Abouth Faith
Summary: 5 Stars

It is hard to believe that So Far From God first came out like a wild bull into the ring more than ten years ago. Every time I read it (and I do each semester for my classes in Religious Studies) I laugh and I cry along with "Sofia" at the unraveling of hundreds of years of culture in the Southwest. And the "magical" way Castillo has of winding it all back together for our heroine. As a professor in Religious Studies, this is not magical realism. This is a book about faith. Faith in the earth, Our Mother. Taken from my home as child in Arizona to be raised by "good Christian Whites", this book brought me back home in a way that only a masterpiece could.
