Kissing the Virgin’s Mouth

Kissing the Virgin’s Mouth

Guadalupe Magdalena Molina Vasquez — wife, scoundrel, courtesan, mother — is full of contradictions: she believes in love but is suspicious of men; she rejects religion but admires the Virgin Mary; she respects tradition while breaking all the rules. Here, in the Golden Zone of Teatan, Mexico, Magda tells her extraordinary life story — from a poor Mexican barrio to American affluence, from wide-eyed childhood to worldly courtesan life, from full-blooded youth to oncoming blindness — and bewitchingly imparts the hard-earned wisdom she has gained through the years.
