About this product

Product Information

As the descendants of Mexican immigrants have settled throughout the United States, a great literature has emerged, but its correspondances with the literature of Mexico have gone largely ubserved. In Bordering Fires, the first anthology to combine writing from both sides of the Mexican-U.S. border, Cristina Garc a presents a richly diverse cross-cultural conversation. Beginning with Mexican masters such as Alfonso Reyes and Juan Rulfo, Garc a highlights historic voices such as the godfather of Chica literature Rudolfo Anaya, and Gloria Anzald a, who made a powerful case for language that reflects bicultural experience. From the fierce evocations of Chica reality in Jimmy Santiago Baca s Poem IX to the breathtaking images of identity in Coral Bracho s poem Fish of Fleeting Skin, from the work of Carlos Fuentes to Sandra Cisneros, Ana Castillo to Octavio Paz, this landmark collection of fiction, essays, and poetry offers an exhilarating new vantage point on our continent and on the best of contemporary literature.
