A Literary Non-Fiction Memoir
This creative non-fiction memoir narrated by a female voice, in a series of vignettes, draws on childhood memories of Dolores, the fourth-born daughter in a family of five girls, growing up in rural northeastern New Mexico. Themes of family life, cultural customs, language use, cross-cultural encounters and isolation provide the backdrop against which the narrator describes her observations and experiences from an early age to pre-adolescence. Atop the Windmill, because of its reflective themes, will appeal to both adult and young readers who have an interest in the rich Nuevomexicano linguistic and cultural heritage.

What readers are saying about the book:

The long line of little girl heroines may have started with Pipi Longstocking and continuing with Heidi, Alice, Eloise, Nancy Drew and Hermione and, now we have Dodo Gonzales.
- Neil M.
Leer este libro es como, cuando comes un dulce que te gusta mucho y lo saboreas pero no quieres que se acabe.
​- Rosa F.

Gonzales’s coming of age memoir is a long awaited addition of a Latina voice to the literature of Northern New Mexico.
- María C. L.
