He has written extensively on Latino culture, Jewish culture, dictionaries, immigration, language, Spanglish, soccer, translation, travel, selfies, and God. The Restless Ilan Stavans surveys his interests, achievements, and flaws while he is still in the midst of an extraordinarily productive career. A native of Mexico who became a U.S. citizen, he is an outsider to both the Chicano community that often resents him as an interloper and the American Jewish community that he, who grew up speaking Yiddish in Mexico City, often chides. The book examines his unlikely rise to prominence within the context of the spread of multiculturalism as a seminal principle within American culture. A self-proclaimed cosmopolitan who rejects borders, Stavans is both insider and outsider to the myriad of subjects he approaches. 600 10 $a Stavans, Ilan $x Criticism and interpretation. 600 17 $a Stavans, Ilan. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00290748 650 0 $a Mexican American authors $v Biography. 650 0 $a Hispanic American authors $v Biography. 650 7 $a Hispanic American authors. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00957343 650 7 $a Mexican American authors. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01018935 655 7 $a Biography. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423686 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411635 776 08 $i Online version: $z 0822986841 $z 0822986841 $w (OCoLC)1090060537 830 0 $a Latino and Latin American profiles. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20190702014655.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=58B0178E875711E9A56C064497128E48 994 $a 92 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
