Description

She wasn’t the only angry woman at U.C. Berkeley. Edgy but unaware of the reasons, she only knew she had to flee, that she couldn’t save the world until she had first saved herself. A passion for music delivered her to Spain, to Seville, a provincial city fertile with the cry of guitar. There, coveting gypsy power, driven to dance with wild audacity, she staked her life on Flamenco.

Review by: Jacquelyn Raye Davis on Sep. 12, 2011 : star star star star star
Susan Salguero writes with wry humor and intelligence about the time she spent living, learning, and dancing Flamenco with an extended family of Gypsies in Spain. It was an easy, interesting read that I would recommend for those with curiosity about the very passionate, soulful, tumultuous, and often difficult gypsy life as seen from the eyes of the one they called Gachi.
