Paperback. Zustand: Good. Beautifully written and important.Martinez shows us how 'America' is being reimagined by its uninvited, its disrespected, its invisible, and he shows us that they will change us, whether we like it or not.--Los Angeles Times In the decade since Crossing Over first appeared, immigration from Mexico has only become more fraught and more lethal, the rallying cry of nativist politics and a pawn in the war on terror. Yet the U.S.-Mexican border remains one of the most permeable boundaries in the world, breached daily by Mexicans in search of work. Thousands die crossing the line, and those who reach the other side are branded illegals, undocumented and unprotected. Following the emigration of the Ch vez clan, an extended Mexican family who lost three sons in a tragic border accident, Rub n Mart nez traces the migrants' progress from their small southern Mexican town of Cher n to California, Wisconsin, and Missouri. Far from joining the melting pot, Mart nez argues, the seven million migrants who are now here are creating a new Hispanic-influenced culture that is dramatically altering both Mexico and the United States. Hailed as valuable, passionate, and terrific, Crossing Over puts a human face on the phenomenon of Mexican immigration and the vibrant Latino culture it introduces to the U.S., and remains a beautifully written classic of our time. …

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Un viaje al corazón de la Cuba contemporánea que convoca a los fantasmas del oscuro pasado revolucionario de la isla. Por escribir un poema a los dieciocho años en Cuba, Néstor Díaz de Villegas fue acusado por la Seguridad del Estado de ser un "diversionista ideológico" y condenado a seis años en un campo de trabajos forzados, de donde saldrá en 1979 rumbo a Miami. Treinta y siete años después, el autor regresa a la isla con la perspicacia de un periodista experimentado. Tras la reanudación de las relaciones diplomáticas entre los Estados Unidos y Cuba, Néstor y su esposa se aventuran en la reconstrucción de una antigua casa familiar en La Habana, una tarea que se convierte en metáfora de la restauración de una nación en quiebra. Con su infancia cubana como fantasmal telón de fondo, Díaz de Villegas teje un tapiz de disidentes y buscavidas, parientes perdidos y amigos nuevos, viviendas en ruinas y sórdidos palacios. Meditación sobre la vida y la muerte, extravagante cuaderno de viaje, tratado político y narración histórica, De donde son los gusanos es también la crónica del lento florecer de un nuevo espíritu emprendedor en Cuba, así como de la colaboración entre expatriados y residentes de la isla en la causa común de redimir al país de los estragos del totalitarismo. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A journey to the heart of contemporary Cuba which summons the ghosts of the island's dark revolutionary past. Just for writing a poem at age eighteen in Cuba, Néstor Díaz de Villegas was accused by State Security of being an "ideological divergent" and sentenced to six years in a forced labor camp, where he would leave in 1979 heading for Miami. Thirty-seven years later, the author returns to the island but this time with the insight of an experienced journalist. After the renewal of diplomatic relations between the United States and Cuba, Néstor and his wife venture into the reconstruction of an old family home in Havana, a task that becomes a metaphor for the restoration of a bankrupt nation. Díaz de Villegas weaves a tapestry of dissidents and hustlers, long lost relatives and new friends, dilapidated homes and wretched palaces. Along with meditation about life and death, an extravagant travel journal, political treaty and historical narrative, Where Traitors Come from is also the chronicle of the slow blossoming of a new entrepreneurial spirit in Cuba, as well as a partnership and collaboration between expatriates and the island's residents.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Un hombre regresa al pueblo donde ocurrió un asesinato desconcertante 27 años atrás, con la determinación de descubrir la verdad. Todos parecen estar de acuerdo en que Bayardo San Román, sólo unas horas después de su matrimonio con la bella Angela Vicario, la devuelve por deshonrada a la casa paterna. La atribulada familia fuerza a la novia a revelar el nombre de su primer amante; y los hermanos gemelos de ella anuncian su intención de matar a Santiago Nasar por haber deshonrado a su hermana. Sin embargo, si todos sabían que se iba a cometer un asesinato, ¿por qué nadie trató de impedirlo? Cuanto más se sabe de este asunto, menos se comprende, y cuando la historia al fin se precipita a su inesperada conclusión, una sociedad entera --no sólo un par de asesinos-- está siendo enjuiciada.
