About this listen

Mexico, 1917. On a farm during the violent tumult of revolution, a more immediate threat prowls in a short, emotional story about survival by the New York Times bestselling author of Mexican Gothic.

She is the adventurer of the family. Her brother, the gentle dreamer. Even as they bond over folktales and hold each other close, their world has never felt so dangerous. Revolutionaries and pelones are in conflict, soldiers have turned into scavengers, and an escaped tiger has slipped up the mountain, looking for easy prey. As the darkest of legends becomes real, a young girl will do anything to save her brother’s life.

Silvia Moreno-Garcia’s The Tiger Came to the Mountains is part of Trespass, a collection of wild stories about animal instincts, human folly, and survival from award-winning, bestselling authors. Read or listen to each in a single sitting.

Really Good, Gripping Story

There is indeed a tiger, and yes, it does come to the mountains, but it plays such a small role in the overall story. I enjoyed the descriptive writing, though; I could picture myself in the space alongside the characters... Overall, short but somber historical fiction depicting a small snapshot of the lives of everyday families during the Mexican Revolution.

Good story! Title is a little misleading...
