Summary:"The seasons of life in Mexico and Guatemala are marked by colorful celebrations that are joyous, somber, sacred, and sometimes irreverent. With a history that goes back to ancient Maya forebears, these celebrations and rituals combine countless layers of history and storytelling. Every community commemorates its past and tells its story in a distinctive way. In [this book], these rites and rituals are illuminated in compelling imagery that puts you right into the middle of the actions. Starting with the early December celebrations of the Virgin Mary in Mexico's Yucat̀n, the book chronicles feast days of patron saints in Chiapas, Mexico, and Rabinal, Guatemala; the Carnival celebrations before Lent; Holy Week before Easter; and finally the Day of the Dead in Oaxaca, Mexico. In total, 13 celebrations are illustrated." --
