## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The story of a.wise and courageous woman
*by D***L on September 14, 2022*

I lived in Guatemala for about a year. My only regret is that I didn't read this book first. Fear of the military was spread to the expat community. Because we knew no indigenous people that also spoke Spanish we didn't understand the Mayan culture. The strength of the indigenous people was evident every day. I was horrified to see the tiny women and men who strapped wood, water and other things to their heads while they walked barefoot and had babies on their back while walking long distances barefoot. The nobility of the Guatemalan Mayan communities was obvious and the treatment they received at the hands of the ladinos was truly horrible. The banks had cat walks with soldiers pointing guns at the customers. The poor Mayans could stand in line for long periods of time because whenever a ladino came in they jumped the line in front of the poor Mayans. Guatemala is a truly beautiful country marred by the racist behaviors of the ladino population. This book really touched me and it is obvious why Rigoberta received a Nobel Prize. Her wisdom,intelligence and courage is an inspiration. It's one of the best books I've ever read....and I read 2 or 3 books a week. She is inspirational.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A powerful first-person narrative of poverty and injustice
*by C***T on December 8, 2017*

I’ve been non-stop reading this book about the remarkable yet humble indigenous woman, who emerged out of oppressive poverty and ethnic discrimination by educating and empowering herself, and eventually won the Nobel Peace Prize. It is hard to put the book down once you have opened it. It makes you aware and makes you cringe at the hardships, injustices and the layers of oppression against the hardworking and less educated poor, not only in Guatemala but also elsewhere in the world. I highly recommend this book, especially for those of us who want to learn about poverty from the “worm’s eye view” (i.e., first-person narratives, in addition to from the “bird’s eye view” of statistical analyses — both are very important).

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent read - insightful perspectives on indigenous issues and colonialism ...
*by C***N on July 8, 2014*

Excellent read - insightful perspectives on indigenous issues and colonialism at its most brutal, told in a way that brings the reader close to the story, the author, her family and struggles .
