Carne de Dios

In Carne de Dios, Homero Aridjis transports readers to the world of María Sabina, the revered Mazatec healer, and the sacred mushroom ceremonies that would captivate the global imagination during the 1960s counterculture movement. Through Aridjis's lyrical prose, vividly translated by Chloe Garcia Roberts, we first journey to the mountains of Huautla de Jiménez in 1957, where Sabina's veladas--mushroom rituals--draw seekers from across the world forever altering the course of Sabina's life and the world's perception of Mexico's Indigenous traditions.
