Brief Summary Woman of Light by Kali Fajardo-Anstine

Woman of Light is a great coming of age story of Luz, an indigenous woman growing up in 1930s Denver, Colorado. I love how, throughout the book, her family’s past is woven into and shapes her understanding of the present. In Luz’s case, it is through her gift as a seer, but I think we are all given glimpses into our family’s past in different ways as we grow and begin to piece together the stories we create of ourselves. More broadly, and although this book is fiction, I felt like it was an extremely insightful and honest look into Denver’s deeply segregated past by casting a rare light on an early urban Indigenous experience.
