Godine, $c 1982. 300 $a 195 pages ; $c 23 cm 520 $a The author, a disadvantaged Mexican American, writes of feelings of alienation from his family as he learned English and earned a Ph. D. 520 $a Hunger of Memory is the story of Mexican-American Richard Rodriguez, who begins his schooling in Sacramento, California, knowing just 50 words of English, and concludes his university studies in the stately quiet of the reading room of the British Museum. Here is the poignant journey of a "minority student" who pays the cost of his social assimilation and academic success with a painful alienation--from his past, his parents, his culture--and so describes the high price of "making it" in middle-class America. Provocative in its positions on affirmative action and bilingual education, Hunger of Memory is a powerful political statement, a profound study of the importance of language ... and the moving, intimate portrait of a boy struggling to become a man.--From publisher description. 586 $a Anisfield-Wolf Book Award, 1983. 505 0 $a Middle-class pastoral -- Aria -- The achievement of desire -- Credo -- Complexion -- Profession -- Mr. Secrets. 600 10 $a Rodriguez, Richard, $d 1944- 600 16 $a Rodriguez, Richard. 600 17 $a Rodriguez, Richard, $d 1944- $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01899035 650 0 $a Mexican Americans $z California $v Biography. 651 0 $a California $v Biography. 650 0 $a Mexican Americans $x Education. 650 0 $a Education, Bilingual $z United States. 650 0 $a Affirmative action programs $z United States. 650 6 $a AmeÌricains d'origine mexicaine $z Californie $x Biographies. 650 6 $a AmeÌricains d'origine mexicaine $x EÌducation. 650 6 $a Enseignement bilingue $z EÌtats-Unis. 650 6 $a Programmes d'action positive $z EÌtats-Unis. 651 6 $a Californie $x Biographies. 650 7 $a Affirmative action programs. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00798899 650 7 $a Education, Bilingual. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00902886 650 7 $a Mexican Americans. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01019072 650 7 $a Mexican Americans $x Education. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01019089 651 7 $a California. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204928 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 650 17 $a Tweetaligheid. $2 gtt 650 17 $a Onderwijs. $2 gtt 650 17 $a Mexicanen. $2 gtt 650 17 $a Mexicaanse Amerikanen. $2 gtt 651 4 $a California $x Biography. 655 7 $a Autobiographies. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919894 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919896 655 7 $a Autobiographies. $2 lcgft 776 08 $i Online version: $a Rodriguez, Richard. $t Hunger of memory. $d Boston, Mass. : D.R.
