It is the first full-length study to provide a literary history of representations that depict folk healing. In doing so, it argues that curanderismo, and more specifically the figure of the curandera, throughout literature is a figurative watermark that personifies both the continuity and discontinuity among three disparate historical periods of the Mexican American literary archive (pre-Chicano Movement writing, Chicano Nationalist Movement writing, and Post-Chicano Nationalist Movement writing).
