| 520 | |a "In My Eyes, You Are Beautiful is a coming-of-age novel that narrates the life of an Indigenous young woman. It depicts the transformation of Olivia Padilla Xuc, an illiterate six-year-old picking coffee in the Guatemalan countryside as she becomes a liberated, powerful woman working in Mexico City. Through Olivia's deeply moving narrative, we explore the possibility of change and growth of an indigenous woman as she delves into issues of racism, economic opportunity and self-worth - the vital themes that first nation people confront globally while they try to better themselves in societies convinced of their worthlessness. Against an historical period of armed conflict, turmoil and conflict, Olivia Padilla is funny, intense, imaginative, alternately serious and playful. Her courage allows her to explore her sexuality in Guatemala, Mexico, Cuba and Italy as she builds a satisfying, independent life few people could have considered possible."-- |c Provided by publisher. | ||
