A mysterious plague is decimating the population of colonial Mexico. One of His MajestyÍs highest physicians is dispatched from Spain to bring the latest advances in medical science to the backward peoples of the New World capital. Here begins the cyclical tale of man battling the unknown, of science confronting the eternally indifferent forces of nature. Morales takes us on a trip through ancient and future civilizations, through exotic but all-too-familiar cultures, to a final confrontation with our own ethics and world views. In later chapters, the colonial physician finds his successors as they once again engage in life or death struggles, attempting to balance their own hopes, desires and loves with the good society and the state. Book II of the novel takes place in modern-day southern California, and Book III in a futuristic technocratic confederation known as Lamex. In the tradition of Latin American born novelist, Alejandro Morales is one of the finest representatives of magic realism in the English language. In The Rag Doll Plagues, Morales creates a many layered fictional world, taking us on an entertaining and thought-provoking safari thorough lands, times, peoples and ideas never before encountered or presented in this manner. But ultimately, this valuable trip leads to a reacquaintance with our own society and its moral vision.

Love is the most powerful of all the emotions. Without it we cannot grow. No matter how young or old we are, we need to know that we are loved-and remembering the ones who love us enables us to become healthy, strong people. This is especially true for young people who are still developing and growing. Being separated from the ones we love is not always a choice, and children need to remember all the people who love or have loved them, regardless of distance. The Rag Doll shares how one family keeps love alive through a magical rag doll. It is a sweet and emotional story reminding us that love is the greatest gift of all-a gift that transcends distance and even death-and the book's message will bring comfort to anyone who needs to be reassured that they are loved. This beautifully illustrated book is sure to become a family classic, a story to share with children and grandchildren for years to come.
