Fiction. Omar's friend Art Serrano, a world-famous painter, is dead—either that or he's disappeared and has left behind what appears to be a suicide note. As months go by, as Art becomes the focus of a media feeding frenzy, who better to supply the authoritative accounts of his past and present life than his old friend Omar, a journalist, to whom Art's last messages, it turns out, were dedicated? In the meantime, Verónica, a factory-worker- turned-prostitute in Juárez, Mexico, is murdered outside a discotheque attended by the city's young and rich.

The miracle songs (or cantigas de miragre) form the focus of this book. While the Cantigas have been the subject of much scholarly attention, only a handful of studies have looked at the repertory through an interdisciplinary lens. Fewer still have probed how the Cantigas use the power of song as a communicative medium, one that functio...
