Suz, March 24, 2007 (view all comments by Suz)
Considering that I was fortunate enough to hear Elva read her work at a conference, I could hear her speaking voice throughout the heartrendingly authentic prose of 'Barefoot Heart'. The book is a memoir of the accomplishments and tribulations experienced by Elva and her family while living as Mexican immigrants in Texas and as migrant farm workers in Minnesota. The incorporation of Spanish words and phrases lends realism to the book. Although the stories are simple and generally uncomplicated, they evoke exceptionally strong emotions.
