Enchanted Legends and Lore of New Mexico: Witches, Ghosts & Spirits by: Ray John de Aragón
Beginning in the seventeenth century, townsfolk and rural dwellers in the remote Spanish colonial city of Santa Fe maintained a provocative interest in mysterious and miraculous visions. This preoccupation with the afterlife, occult forces and unearthly beings existing outside the natural world led to early witch trials, stories about saintly apparitions and strange encounters with spirits and haunted places.
In this bookclub we will read cuentos "stories" set in New Mexico. From history to folklore to witchcraft, enjoy short stories and novels retelling our elders’ legends here in New Mexico. Share stories recited to you by your elders that have not been written down yet.
Registration is not required but highly recommended.
