"In Street of Too Many Stories, Denise Chávez has created a magical place populated by four families. From the street itself, filled with spirits who dance and visit homes, to the mothers, fathers, and children who stay there their entire lives or leave and return, to those who hold on to hope or whose dreams are crushed, Encantada Street is a microcosm of the pain, love, dysfunction, and hope that is humanity. This is a border story that reveals the nuances of living in 'that liminal space of challenge and hope.' You will not want to stop reading."Dr. Yolanda Chávez LeyvaDirector, Institute of Oral History & Associate Professor, The University of Texas at El Paso
"A street seems like a simple thing. But this novel shows it is so much more. It's the lives that fill its nooks and crannies and open vistas. The spaces echoing with words said and unsaid, of dreams won and lost. Of the worlds that circulate between walls and across doorsteps. The joys and sorrows that whistle through the four directions, and the quirks and refinements that smooth the edges of what is left behind. Chávez has written a beautiful work of fiction, and a must read."
"Denise Chávez's new novel, Street of Too Many Stories, is an expansive yet richly intimate tale about the inhabitants of a New Mexican calle. In doing so, Chávez embraces the losses, dreams, and secrets of the border and its peoples, of the complex destinies set in motion by place.A sensory feast!"Cristina GarcíaAuthor of Vanishing Maps
