This is not a traditional novel - more vignettes and poetry woven together. Some of the poetry was good, and some I didn't like as much. I have learned from further reading that most of this book is autobiographical - Luisa is the story of a revolutionary childhood in Nicaragua, where ghosts haunt houses with the sound of their slippers, and old ladies help blow up bridges. My favorite story was about the "dwarf" lady.
I actually have been carrying this book for many years. I purchased it at a library book sale when I lived in New Jersey. It moved with me to Florida. I must have begun it at some point, as I found an order form for PC World magazine nestled in the first few pages.
