Suffused with Hispanic wisdom, tall tales, and slang, the stories enchanted us.--New Mexico Magazine
García provides the reader with insights often overlooked. . . . The many aspects of life in New Mexico are portrayed with joy and genuine care.--Roundup
No More Bingo, Comadre! is more than just a good-humored anthology. An important underlining theme to these tales is about younger generations of Hispanic New Mexicans losing touch with their culture. . . . As with traditional folktales, each story has a moral meant to convey universal themes.--The Taos News
A sensitive, humorous Northern New Mexico folkloric treasure. It is a view of the evolving world of New Mexico Hispanics by a master storyteller who experienced all of the losses, gains, and compromises made to accommodate that transition.--Esther V. Córdova-May, author of Antes: Stories from the Past in Cuba, New Mexico, 1769-1949
