In this captivating book, Rojas Contreras delves into her family’s otherworldly legacy, weaving their stories with personal narratives and unraveling legacies of violence, machismo, and colonialism in Colombia.
Raised amid the political violence of 1980s and ‘90s Colombia, Rojas Contreras grew up in a house bustling with her mother’s fortune-telling clients. Her maternal grandfather, Nono, was a renowned curandero—a community healer gifted with what the family called “the secrets.” These secrets included the power to talk to the dead, predict the future, treat the sick, and even move the clouds. Rojas Contreras’ mother, as the first woman to inherit these secrets, was equally powerful. She delighted in her ability to appear in two places at once and could banish persistent spirits with nothing more than a glass of water.
