On Mexican Time: A New Life In San Miguel by Tony Cohan
4.0
I struggle to explain all that I find so wonderful in my visits to Mexico so what a treat to find this book that so eloquently describes my experiences. One particular dialogue says it all for me.
"If I smile, people smile wider. If I say "Buenos dias," they say it back, stronger."
"In Mexico," Paul says, "you put out a little, you get back a lot. In human terms, at least, you could say it's a functional economy."
Finally understand how the nickname Pepe originates from Jose. "putative paternity" in reference to Joseph the father of the Immaculate Conception. Putative meaning generally considered or reputed to be.
