Synopsis "children of the sun and other stories"

Eight thematically linked stories of multi-culturalism, immigration and globalism from The Conquest of the New World to the wars in the Middle East today. The first grouping follows seven women in succession, each story building upon its predecessor. Unexpected Arrival introduces an unnamed narrator as she suffers the loss of her childhood homeland and is thrown into the turbulence of the United States during the 1960's. Chains is a poignant and hilarious tale of an eccentric and unappreciated creative artist. In Rare Earth, the protagonist is healed by the land itself, following a devastating loss. All Good things is the story of globalism gone wrong along with a terrible life altering love affair. Blue Mood follows the creative process of a young jazz musician and Trading Horses is about growing up and taking on responsibility. Old Woman chronicles a turbulent life from the Russian Revolution, to the rise of Nazism, to the camps and battlefields of Eastern Europe ending in Argentina's Dirty War. Children of the Sun is a story of spiritual transformation focusing on the ill -fated Narvaez expedition to North America in 1528. It is told from the perspective of the Moorish slave Esteban, his owner the nobleman, Dorantes, Alonso de Castillo, a physician's son from Salamanca and Cabeza de Vaca, second in command and treasurer of the expedition, who saves their lives by becoming a renowned healer among the Indian Nations they encounter.
