Sofia's Saints - Tapa blanda

Since her mother's death twelve years earlier, thirty-year-old Sofia Loren Sauceda has lived in the same house where she grew up. Although she must work as a waitress to make ends meet, Sofia indulges her artistic muse by burning unique renderings of various saints onto wood. She has even managed to sell some of her work at a local flea market. She refuses to compromise her artistic integrity by creating more marketable work, but her resolute philosophy begins to unravel when she learns that the house in which she grew up, where she has lived since her mother's death, is to be sold and that her only hope of buying it lies with an old coffee can filled with spare change. Forced to confront both her painful past and the seemingly inevitable loss of her old home, Sofia realizes that she must reevaluate everything she thought she knew about art, love, men, miracles, and money.
