Forbidden Voices
by Anna Orozco Flores
Graphic by E. Terrones Simms
Forbidden Voices is the story of María Carrera's search for the hidden truths of the Aztec past. She encounters the resistance of the Church, the passion and potentially deadly attention of Ramón, and the friendship of Consuelo. She shares a spiritual link with Xochtil, an Aztec princess who risked here life to save those truths. That link takes María to Tenochtitlán during the Spanish conquest and she experiences the drama and danger that surrounded Xochitl. With the Assistance of Father Ledoux, before he was killed, María uncovers revelations about the Aztec culture that some people in power want destroyed. Anna Flores interweaves the present with the past and takes the reader on an interesting and mysterious journey uncovering the voices of the Aztec past that have, until now, been forbidden.
