About this product
Product Information
The thirteen original essays in this collection explore the Mexican point of view from the 1920s to the present in order to register often unheard voices in the complex cross-border, cross-cultural reality shared by the two nations. The contributors, all of whom have personal experience with the challenges of bi-cultural and bi-national living, discuss travel writing, novels, film, essays, political cartoons, and Mexican sociocultural movements. In a time of ever-increasing migration of capital and human beings, this book turns on its head the usual perspective of U.S. economic and cultural dominance in order to deepen understanding of the bi-national relationship.

This fascinating work proves to us that Mexico and the United States are not just 'distant neighbors' but can share a common culture of decency and respect for human rights. --Elena Poniatowska, " Mexico Reading the United States is a provocative, well-researched, and engaging discursive addition to the canon." -- Hispania, This fascinating work proves to us that Mexico and the United States are notjust 'distant neighbors' but can share a common culture of decency and respect for human rights. --Elena Poniatowska, "A first and a must for 21st-century borderlands studies." -- Norma Klahn , University of California, Santa Cruz, This fascinating work proves to us that Mexico and the United States are not just 'distant neighbors' but can share a common culture of decency and respect for human rights. --Elena Poniatowska, This fascinating work proves to us that Mexico and the United States are not just 'distant neighbors' but can share a common culture of decency and respect for human rights. --Elena Poniatowska, A first and a must for 21st-century borderlands studies. --Norma Klahn , University of California, Santa Cruz, "This fascinating work proves to us that Mexico and the United States are not just 'distant neighbors' but can share a common culture of decency and respect for human rights." -- Elena Poniatowska, This fascinating work proves to us that Mexico and the United States are not just 'distant neighbors' but can share a common culture of decency and respect for human rights.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
