Méndez's acclaimed novel is the story of an impoverished town in the Sonoran Desert of rural México as seen through the eyes of the old men who gather every day to reminisce. Juxtaposed with their memories is the story of the fantastic journey taken by one member of the Noragua family who sets out to seek his fortune in the United States and ends up on a disillusioning encounter with his own destiny.
"The Dream of Santa María de las Piedras is very beautiful and reflects an impassioned world with effective mastery. Congratulations are in order!" -Camilo Jose Cela (Nobel Prize in Literature, 1989)
