Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. In this bilingual collection of five stories, Don Cecilio tells the neighborhood children stories that make their hair stand on end. In my barrio they told the story . . . and so his cuento would begin. In The Owl and the Bundle, young Tomas disappears without a trace. Distraught, his parents and siblings look for him everywhere with no luck. Upon returning home, his father sees something curious, an owl flying above the house carrying a bundle with its talons. Is it possible, he wonders, that the bundle is Little Tomas? Could the owl have taken their precious son? Based on oral tradition, these stories featuring witches, owls, and other spooky creatures have been told in Spanish-speaking barrios for generations. Now, this new edition with a first-ever English translation provided by John Pluecker will entertain and terrify a new generation of English-and Spanish-speaking children with the supernatural tales of the Hispanic community. Originally published in Spanish in 1972 as La Lechuza: Cuentos de mi barrio (The Naylor Company), Brujas, lechuzas y espantos/Witches, Owls and Spooks will fascinate children interested in scary stories and at the same time provide a window into a different time and place, when people lived a more rural life and winged shadows flitted across a darkened countryside. …

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Company town. Blighted community. Beloved home. Nestled on the banks of the Rio Grande, at the heart of a railroad, mining, and smelting empire, Smeltertown--La Esmelda, as its residents called it--was home to generations of ethnic Mexicans who labored at the American Smelting and Refining Company in El Paso, Texas. Using newspapers, personal archives, photographs, employee records, parish newsletters, and interviews with former residents, including her own relatives, Monica Perales unearths the history of this forgotten community. Spanning almost a century, Smeltertown traces the birth, growth, and ultimate demise of a working class community in the largest U.S. city on the Mexican border and places ethnic Mexicans at the center of transnational capitalism and the making of the urban West. Perales shows that Smeltertown was composed of multiple real and imagined social worlds created by the company, the church, the schools, and the residents themselves. Within these dynamic social worlds, residents forged permanence and meaning in the shadow of the smelter's giant smokestacks. Smeltertown provides insight into how people and places invent and reinvent themselves and illuminates a vibrant community grappling with its own sense of itself and its place in history and collective memory.…

Hardback. Zustand: Good. Llega la novela más autobiográfica de José Luis Perales. Una emotiva y tierna historia en la que el cantante y escritor ahonda a través de la ficción en su infancia, su formación, sus deseos y el comienzo de su pasión por la música.   Marcelo es un niño de siete años inquieto como una cola de lagartija. Lo que más le gusta en el mundo es pasar el verano con sus abuelos, José y Valentina, en el pueblo: El Castro. Juntos dan paseos por el río, pescan, juegan y charlan de todo un poco. En sus conversaciones, el abuelo le cuenta a su nieto historias de su familia y de cómo era El Castro cuando él nació.   A través de ellas, José relatará su infancia, la repentina partida del pueblo a los catorce años, la difícil estancia en un internado y el descubrimiento de la música, que consiguió que superara los momentos más complicados de su adolescencia y le dio un objetivo en la vida: ser compositor, cantante y cumplir el sueño de grabar su primer disco. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The most autobiographical novel by the beloved Jose Luis Perales to date. An emotional and tender story in which the singer and writer, through fiction, delves into his childhood, his training, his desires, and the beginning of his passion for music.   Marcelo is a restless seven-year-old boy.
