Set against the tumultuous political backdrop of 1990s Mexico, The Grasshopper Lost Its Wings follows Eric—known as Chapu—as he navigates a journey from humble beginnings to a world of ambition, love, and moral conflict. As he becomes involved in national events leading to tragedy, he must confront the personal and political consequences that follow him across borders. Blending indigenous history and modern politics, the novel explores themes of identity, exile, and the enduring impact of the past.
