Scandals in the House of Birds 

 -  Marsilio Publishers 
 - 300 pages 
<br/><br/> Based on a 30 year span of fieldwork in the Lake Atitlan region of Guatemala, Scandals is a multi-voiced epic of a sacred crime and its tangled mythic, religious and political ramifications. The Maximon, a wooden idol venerated since pre-Columbian times is stolen, sent to a European museum, and finally returned decades later, largely thanks to the author's intervention.
