Come join the clan ""With her novel Echoes of My Clan, Rocio Vargas Herrera has been able to clarify many of the doubts regarding the sentiments of the gypsies and their way of thinking. Her lithe, articulate, and easy reading takes us by the hand through the experiences and sufferings of the main character: first as a child, who must live in the world of the whites or non-gypsy, and as an adult, during the terrifying days of the Second World War, including the repressive Franco era in Spain. Her indomitable character and sense of responsibility shape her way and catches us from the beginning. It's an interesting novel, dynamic, entertaining, and a worthwhile read."" -Dr. Alberto Moreno Restrepo, author of Una Mujer Llamada Anayansi"
