Synopsis "Uniquely Yucatan: Stories and Poems mostly true (in English)"
Take a rare look behind the scenes of living in Mexico, where reflections from a kaleidoscope of experiences---retirement, working or raising a family--- go beyond the tourist attractions to the real lives of expats in the Yucatan. The authors, from The United States and Canada, reside in Merida and spin stories from their hearts, weaving a brilliant thread connecting profound experiences with the gentle and amazing people of the Yucatan. Enlightening portrayals shed light on Maya mysticism, the Virgin of Guadalupe, the unique behavior of local fauna and flora and much more. The thread continues throughout both laugh-out-loud and tear-sliding-down-the face stories, some spiced with artistic license, but all based on real experiences as varied as the authors themselves. Lost in the jungle while chasing flamingos, embarrassing language bloopers, the mystery of the cross in the tree, and the dangers of traveling in the burning season are but a few that will inform, thrill, amuse and warm your heart.
