SOFIA SEGOVIA
The Murmur of Bees
From a beguiling voice in Mexican fiction comes an astonishing novel— her first to be translated into English—about a mysterious child with the power to change a family’s history in a country on the verge of revolution.
Set against the backdrop of the Mexican Revolution and the devastating influenza of 1918, The Murmur of Bees captures both the fate of a country in flux and the destiny of one family that has put its love, faith, and future in the unbelievable.
