In this, the first anthology to combine writing from both sides of the Mexican-U.S. border, Cristina GarciÌa presents a richly cross-cultural conversation. Beginning with Mexican masters such as Alfonso Reyes and Juan Rulfo, GarciÌa highlights historic voices such as "the godfather of Chicano literature" Rudolfo Anaya, and Gloria AnzalduÌa, who made a powerful case for language that reflects bicultural experience. From the fierce evocations of Chicano reality in Jimmy Santiago Baca's Poem IX to the breathtaking images of identity in Coral Bracho's poem "Fish of Fleeting Skin," this collection of fiction, essays, and poetry offers an new vantage point on our continent--and on the best of contemporary literature.--From publisher description. 505 00 $g New departures. $t Fish of fleeting skin / $r Coral Bracho. $g Early influences. $t Major Aranda's hand / $r Alfonso Reyes ; $t My cousin Agueda, and $t In the wet shadows / $r RamoÌn LoÌpez Velarde ; $g Excerpt from $t Pedro PaÌramo / $r Juan Rulfo ; $t L.A. nocturne : the angels / $r Xavier Villaurrutia -- $g Chicano/a voices I: $t How to tame a wild tongue / $r Gloria AnzalduÌa ; $t India / $r Richard Rodriguez ; $t Meditations on the South Valley : Poem IX / $r Jimmy Santiago Baca ; $t B.
