Consider This, Senora

Andrew John Kinney

This is one of my favorite novels, and the best I have read which is set in Mexico. Harriet Doerr started writing in her seventies, and it is a loss for readers that she did not start earlier. I have spent quite a bit of time in Mexico (as did Doerr), and her description of life there is wonderfully wrought and pitch perfect. She must have been an extraordinary woman; this book was published when she was 83, and the prose sparkles.
