EL PESO DE UNA MISA
UN RELATO DE FE
The eagerly-awaited Spanish language version
which has been beguiling readers,
and scooping up awards.
Couched in the language and look of a fairy tale,
and rich in solemn beauty, this tale of what
happened when a destitute widow begs only a
crust of bread in return for offering the Royal
Wedding Mass is based on a true miracle.
