By the Light of My Father’s Smile (Paperback) by Alice Walker
A family from the United States goes to the remote Sierras in Mexico-the writer-to-be, Susannah; her sister, Magdalena; her father and mother. And there, amid an endangered band of mixed-race Blacks and Indians called the Mundo, they begin an encounter that will change them more than they could ever dream. Moving back and forth in time, and among unforgettable characters and their stories, Walker crosses conventional borders of all kinds as she explores in this magical novel the ways in which a woman’s denied sexuality leads to the loss of the much prized and necessary original self; and how she regains that self, even as her family’s past of lies and love is transformed. By the Light of My Father’s Smile presents, as Alice Walker puts it, “a celebration of sexuality, its absolute usefulness in the accessing of one’s mature spirituality, and the father’s role in assuring joy or sorrow in this arena for his female children.” It explores the richness and coherence of alternative culture, experience of sexuality as a celebration of life, of trust in Nature and the Spirit, even as it affirms the belief, as Walker says, “that it is the triumphant heart, not the conquered heart, that forgives. And that love is both timeless and beyond time.”–Provided by publisher.
