Many Guatemalans speak of Mayan indigenous organizing as 'a finger in the wound'. This book explores the implications of this painfully graphic metaphor in a study of the civil war and its aftermath. It investigates the notion of Quincentennial Guatemala, which has given focus to the overarching question of Mayan - and Guatemalan - identity.
