Woman Who Glows In The Dark

Author: Avila, Elena
Date Published: 1999


This is an excellent book that follows the experiences of a curandero, Elena Avila. The author learns of the limitations of conventional mental health practices which then motivated Avila, who grew up in a first-generation Chicano family in El Paso, Texas, to apprentice with an Aztec master and eventually to become a full-time curandera.
