About this book

Español

La muchacha maíz y otros cuentos

Las mujeres y los hombres provienen del maíz. O al menos eso contaban, y cuentan todavía, los antiguos mexicanos. Pero ¿de dónde viene el maíz? Ah, pues de unas rocas que se encontraron el cuervo y el pájaro carpintero. ¿Será? Porque corre el chisme de que fue un regalo del relámpago. ¿Sí? Hay quien dice que fue una muchacha que se casó con un tepehuano… Estas historias, trágicas y cómicas, van directo al grano.

English

The Corn Girl and Other Stories

Women and men come from corn. Or at least that's what the ancient Mexicans told us, and still tell us. But where does corn come from? Ah, well, from some rocks that the crow and the woodpecker found. Could it be? Because rumor has it that it was a gift from the lightning. Yes? Some say it was a girl who married a Tepehuano... These stories, tragic and comical, get right to the point.
