Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. 1st Edition. London. Bloomsbury Publishing plc. 2000. First Printing (1 in number line). Hard Cover. Black boards with gilt titles. Dust wrapper has a little shelf wear along the. top edge. Black ribbon page marker A series of short stories which explores relationships between people of Mexico and the United States.[2] There are many connections between the stories, such as characters that appear in multiple stories (the most prominent of which is the wealthy Mexican businessman, Leonardo Barroso). A major, recurring theme in the text is that large parts of the USA were once part of Mexico, all the way from California to Texas, and so the Mexican people feel a special connection with that area. Another important idea is that both countries depend on each other for trade and culture, and many people divide their time and their lives between both sides of the border. Artikel-Nr. NOV2911009
