Oscar Romero: Memories in Mosaic
Maria Lopez Vigil has blessed us with a new and radical form of hagiography: a portrait of Archbishop Oscar Romero, assembled by many hands: a mosaic composed of radiant chips of memory, precisely retrieved. Here we may listen to the voices silenced in the past, and what they offer is a symphony of testimony to the life of one who struggled among us for a new heaven and earth. --Carolyn Forche, The Country Between UsOne only needs to open this book by Maria Lopez Vigil to finish reading it in one sitting. The author's remarkable talents combine with the compelling figure of Archbishop Romero in a book that is truly splendid. --Jon Sobrino, SJ, UCA, San Salvador
