The Inheritance of Orquídea Divina

I haven't felt this seen by a book in such a long time. Intergenerational trauma, but also intergenerational resilience. Complicated family relationships underlaid with love. Traditional nature-based spiritualism that feels comfortingly familiar.

This book is for you if, like me you:
(1) are Indigenous. 
(2) have had difficulty explaining your family dynamics and traditions to people.
(3) Saw the “village crazy lady” Grandmother in the movie Moana and thought, “hey, I know her.”

Did anyone else have a grandmother who might as well have been a legend, a myth, a series of miracles that took the shape of an old woman?”

 Yes. I did.
