A tale of the Azores

by Booklover#1 (WorldCat user published 2011-10-06) Excellent

Permalink

The Azores is an archipelago hundreds of miles west of the coast of Portugal, located in the mid-Atlantic. It is a relatively unknown (or unexploited) area that is not often discussed in the media or in literature. This will change, however, if Darrell Kastin and the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth s Center for Portuguese Studies and Culture has any say. Kastin, who descends from Azores natives, has used his knowledge of the islands, their culture and their history to weave, in The Undiscovered Island, a skillful tapestry of myth, history and personal revelation that is nothing short of fascinating. The story focuses on Julia Castro, who travels to the Azores from her home in California to seek out her father, who has mysteriously gone missing. Through her search for him, Julia encounters legends and superstitions that pervade the island, colorful locals, local history and historical fantasy, and the magic of her roots and herself. What Kastin has done with The Undiscovered Island is bring all of the color and quirk of this beautiful and underappreciated area to the world s attention and we should thank him for that. --Ashley McCall, San Francisco Bay Review, October 2009
