Mary Alice Monroe

Mary Alice Monroe's novel, The Butterfly's Daughter (Gallery Books, $25.00) juxtaposes the path of the monarch butterfly with one young Mexican-American woman's journey of a lifetime. Luz's grandmother had hoped to replicate the epic journey of the mariposa across the U.S. to their winter home in Mexico.  When she dies, Luz vows to go on her own.  " . . . A rich novel about generations and tradition," says Library Journal in its starred review.  Monroe is the New York Times best-selling author of eleven novels, including two other works of environmental fiction, Last Light Over Carolina and Time Is a River.   Mary Alice Monroe's appearance is cancelled.
