San Miguel De Allende, Mexico: Memoir of a Sensual Quest for Spiritual Healing Rick Skwiot

Rick Skwiot's earthy, funny and self-effacing chronicle of his heathen days south of the border. With little money and few prospects the troubled freelance writer takes off to Mexico to find himself. Instead he discovers fast-living, amoral, yet spiritually grounded Mexicans who infect him with a soulful lust for life. Sexy, surreal, and darkly comic, Skwiot's vivid tale depicts his beneficent immersion into small-town Mexican life amid a group of quirky locals and oddball Anglophone expats. Along the way he paints an intimate and sympathetic portrait of Mexico and its people. Ultimately this sultry memoir seduces any reader who values honest reporting of a spiritual journey in which the author fi nds his deliverance through the senses.
