Our Lady Of The Artichokes And Other Portuguese-American Stories

"From the threat of a serial killer as the background for a young girl's first brush with death to the fallout of a modern-day visitation from the Virgin Mary; from an AIDS-stricken squatter refusing to vacate an empty Lisbon home to a mother's yearlong struggle with the death of her daughter, this book includes stories that make their world ours.
