In Carne de Dios, renowned author Homero Aridjis transports readers to the world of María Sabina, the revered Mazatec healer, whose sacred mushroom ceremonies captivated the global imagination during the 1960s counterculture movement. Through Aridjis's lyrical prose, vividly translated by Chloe Garcia Roberts, we journey to the mountains of Huautla de Jiménez in 1957, where Sabina's veladas--mushroom rituals--draw seekers from across the world, forever altering the course of Sabina's life and unleashing a wave of global interest in mushroom culture still gaining momentum today.
