Reviews

""Meghan Farley Webb shares the intimate stories of Maya women left behind by migrant husbands in the United States. Drawing on heartfelt conversations and in-depth observations, the author takes us into households and online posts to show how new technologies of communication both support intimacy and complicate transnational family relations. This book is a welcome study of life in highland Guatemala today."" --Carol Hendrickson, author of Weaving Identities: Construction of Dress and Self in a Highland Guatemala Town
