Summary
Every man has two names ?the first is given to him at birth, the second he chooses when he comes to know himself. Thus, Tomás is driven to adopt the name Tonatiuh, the náhuatl word for Sun "He who makes the day". He feels that there is a burning sphere in his chest; that life is calling out to him. Through Tomás, Homero Aridjis guides us to the light, to the origins of life. Ancient cultures, revered wisdom, naguales (sorcerers), and pyramid secrets are some of the mysteries revealed in this novel.
