Itzá is about a family of water witches living in the mythical border town of Nopales. Marisol, is a young water witch overcoming trauma, grief, and growing pains.
Written in fragments of memories and vignettes: This is Marisol's unapologetic body story and grimoire.
This book is a great gift for readers who love witches, magical realism, exploration of lineage, and coming-of-rage stories.
Praise for Itzá:
"Rios de la Luz is among the most important emerging writing of our time, or any time, because she is inventing a new language without limits that explodes all walls and borders meant to keep us small and quiet. Weaving fabula with domestic trauma and sexual becoming, Itzá restories a girl's life and identity up and through the violence of a culture that cannot contain her. Like a new species facing off with death heads. Like myth rupturing the lies we are told about who we are. Like a Xicana gender fluid voice and body ready to rearrange your reality, gloriously and without apology." -- Lidia Yuknavitch, author of The Chronology of Water
