Beschreibung
Set in one of Tucson's first tamal and tortilla factories, The Molino is a hybrid memoir that reckons with one family's loss of home, food, and faith.Weaving together history, culture, and Mexican food traditions, Melani Martinez shares the story of her family s life and work in the heart of their downtown eatery, El Rapido. Opened by Martinez s great-grandfather, Aurelio Perez, in 1933, El Rapido served tamales and burritos to residents and visitors to Tucson s historic Barrio Presidio for nearly seventy years. For the family, the factory that bound them together was known for the giant corn grinder churning behind the scenes the molino. With clear eyes and warm humor, Martinez documents the work required to prepare food for others, and explores the heartbreaking aftermath of gentrification that forces the multigenerational family business to close its doors.The Molino is also Martinez s personal story that of a young Tucsonense coming of age in the 1980s and 90s. As a young woman she rejects the work in her father s popular kitchen, but when the business closes, her world shifts and the family disbands. When she finds her way back home, the tortilleria s iconic mural provides a gateway into history and ruin, ancestry and sacrifice, industrial myth and artistic incarnation revealing a sacred presence still alive in Tucson.A must-read for foodies, history lovers, and anyone searching for spiritual truth in the desert, this is a story of belonging and transformation in the borderlands.
