<b>A new short story collection from Luis Alberto Urrea, bestselling author of<i>The Hummingbird's Daughter </i>and <i>The Devil's Highway</i>. </b><br><br>From one of America's preeminent literary voices comes a new story collection that proves once again why the writing of Luis Alberto Urrea has been called &quot;wickedly good&quot; (<i>Kansas City Star</i>), &quot;cinematic and charged&quot; (<i>Cleveland Plain Dealer)</i>,<i></i>and &quot;studded with delights&quot; (<i>Chicago Tribune)</i>. Examining the borders between one nation and another, between one person and another, Urrea reveals his mastery of the form. This collection includes the Edgar-award winning &quot;Amapola&quot; and his now-classic &quot;Bid Farewell to Her Many Horses,&quot; which had the honor of being chosen for NPR's &quot;Selected Shorts&quot; not once but twice.<br><br>Suffused with wanderlust, compassion, and no small amount of rock and roll, THE WATER MUSEUM is a collection that confirms Luis Alberto Urrea as an American master.
