*The Mystery of Things [NEW]
   

A modern Anglo novel with a Guadalupan theme by Debra Murphy

This murder mystery is situated in contemporary Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and revolves around a Shakespearean  Seminar led by a priest, modeled on Cardinal Newman.  The students reveal a wide variety of moral outlooks. Woven into the narrative is the tempestuous love story of the convert son of a cold British clergyman and the brilliant-but-stuttering daughter of an Irish woman married to a Mexican.  Between the lines the reader discovers the beauty of true Christian family life under the gentle gaze of Our Lady of Guadalupe.

Projected from the University of New Mexico Press:
               

  Biographies of the "Four First Evangelists of Guadalupe," based on a wide variety of original sources. The first volume is expected in 2010, and the second shortly after that.
  Volume I will present the linguist, Luis Becerra Tanco, who discovered the Nahuatl texts in the 1620s, with an appendix on the less-known Luis Lasso de la Vega, who first published them in 1649.
 
  Volume II will feature the well-known Miguel Sánchez, whose patriotic devotion to Guadalupe also dates from the 1620s, and who published the story in Spanish in 1648 and a set of meditations in 1662.

 

  An appendix tells of the less-known Mateo de la Cruz, who popularized Sánchez’ book in 1660.  

Out of print:
 

Anthology of Early Guadalupan Literature.
Hopefully its materials, and more besides, will appear in future issues of Guadalupe for Anglos.
