Under the Mesquite
Review
By VOYA
Told from Lupita’s point of view and in free verse, McCall elegantly captures the voice of a maturing young woman. This story is filled with ideas concerning self and cultural identity, grief, and the strength of family. Lupita is a smart, compassionate character with which readers will quickly identify and sympathize
. ..Those who take the time to savor this quiet book will not be disappointed.
