Descripción del artículo del vendedor

Paperback. In the highland dawn, the lake is thinning.The people are watching.Centuries after the fall of Teotihuacan and long before the Aztec Empire, an Otomi village in the central Mexican highlands lives between shrinking water and hard stone. Maize, beans, squash, ducks, dogs, deer, and the thin skin of soil hold them in place. Above, the hills carry shrines. Below, the lake pulls back a little more each season.Through the eyes of Nelli, a young ritual apprentice, Otomi follows one drought-stricken year in a world where every gesture matters: a bowl of kernels at a canal mouth, bark-paper figures cut in white and black, smoke rising from a hill shrine into a sky that will not open.Drawing on archaeology, climate studies, and Otomi (Hnaehnu) cosmology, E. J. Marin reconstructs daily life at the edge of the Basin of Mexico: Raised lake-edge fields and highland springs under weakening summer rainsHousehold altars, hilltop ceremonies, and the dual forces of sun and waterDogs, turkeys, deer, and axolotls woven into diet, story, and ritualQuiet negotiations with distant "lake-city" powers when tribute and canals pull at the village from belowThis is historical nonfiction told as narrative: no invented empires or chosen ones, only farmers, hunters, shamans, and elders trying to keep children fed and spirits in balance when climate and politics turn against them.Otomi will appeal to readers who enjoy: Bernard Cornwell's grounded historical worlds and lived-in detailIndigenous history told from the ground up, through land and laborSpare, Hemingway-lean prose where the deepest meaning sits under the surfaceFor readers of indigenous and Mesoamerican history, narrative nonfiction, and anyone curious about how real people once stood between hills and a thinning lake, asking the sky for rain and deciding what to do when it did not come.Step into the highlands. Stand at the canal. Watch the smoke rise. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability. …
