About this book

Chancá, Tixcacal and Chun Pom were sacred Maya settlements in Mexico’s Yucatán Peninsula and centres of the ‘talking crosses’ during the Caste War against colonial domination. J. M. G. Le Clézio visits their landscapes, ruins and surviving memory in three lyrical essays. Blending travel writing, history and meditation, Three Holy Cities listens for the spiritual life that official conquest narratives failed to erase. Originally written in French as “Trois Villes saintes”, this is the Arabic edition published by Mamdouh Adwan Publishing House.
