So in the flowers as in the fire

The hummingbird, ‘winged deity’, is the center of the work that our brother Alfredo wanted to share, years ago, in this book published by the Rural Library Network of Cajamarca.

These letters offer the most varied gifts: if your interest lies in the sacredness, the soul and the depths of the Andean peoples; in the way of life, bodily characteristics and the character of the hummingbird; if you want to know about the Andean peoples and other worldviews; if the  stories, myths and legends call you; if you want poetry, drawings and community inspiration; if you want to refresh your eyes with the beautiful iconography of our winged god; if you seek a sensitive approach and, at the same time deep, stuck to the earth and, at the same time, supported by sources ... in sum, if you want to simply inhabit other worlds other than the frantic, polluted, arrogant and commercial world of today, immerse yourself in So in the flowers as in the fire: you will be moved, shocked and in love with the birds and the flowers, of the Andean and peasant world; of this earth, our spirit and the hummingbirds, our order-givers, fertilizers and eternal shamans.
