Paperback. Condition: Good. Beautifully written and important.Martinez shows us how 'America' is being reimagined by its uninvited, its disrespected, its invisible, and he shows us that they will change us, whether we like it or not.--Los Angeles Times In the decade since Crossing Over first appeared, immigration from Mexico has only become more fraught and more lethal, the rallying cry of nativist politics and a pawn in the war on terror. Yet the U.S.-Mexican border remains one of the most permeable boundaries in the world, breached daily by Mexicans in search of work. Thousands die crossing the line, and those who reach the other side are branded illegals, undocumented and unprotected. Following the emigration of the Ch vez clan, an extended Mexican family who lost three sons in a tragic border accident, Rub n Mart nez traces the migrants' progress from their small southern Mexican town of Cher n to California, Wisconsin, and Missouri. Far from joining the melting pot, Mart nez argues, the seven million migrants who are now here are creating a new Hispanic-influenced culture that is dramatically altering both Mexico and the United States. Hailed as valuable, passionate, and terrific, Crossing Over puts a human face on the phenomenon of Mexican immigration and the vibrant Latino culture it introduces to the U.S., and remains a beautifully written classic of our time.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. Winner of the Premio Planeta--the Spanish-speaking world's richest literary prize The spirit of Stieg Larsson visits Mexico City (Kirkus) Milena, or The Most Beautiful Femur in the World is a pulse-pounding international political thriller about sex, power, and information--and the extreme lengths people go to get them. When Milena's lover and protector, the chief of Mexico's most important newspaper, dies in her arms, she knows it's only a matter of time before the ruthless thugs behind the human-trafficking ring that kidnapped her from her Croatian village catch her and force her back into sex slavery. Soon, three comrades bound together by childhood friendships, romantic entanglements, and a restless desire for justice are after her as well--but for different reasons. The new chief of the newspaper, columnist Tom s Arizmendi, must retrieve Milena's mysterious black book before the media empire he has inherited is torn asunder, while dubious intelligence expert Jaime Lemus wants to use the sensitive information the book contains about the crimes of the world's power elite to further his political puppeteering. Lastly, the noblest of the trio, rising politician Amelia Navarro has made it her mission to protect women and children from the abuses of men in power. Told at a heartracing pace and full of the journalistic detail and sly humor that Mexican master Jorge Zepeda Patterson has become renowned for, Milena, or The Most Beautiful Femur in the World is a romp across Europe and the Americas that traces the vast networks of capital, data, crime, and coerced labor that bind together today's globalized world. Yet, in the beautiful and tenacious Milena, we are reminded that the survivors of the darker facets of modernity are not mere statistics, but living, breathing, individuals.…

Hardback. Condition: Fair. Julián Beltrán es un escritor que nunca limpia su casa. Cuando Andrea, su novia, le exige que lo haga, él decide contratar a una mucama . Y la llegada de Mercedes, una criada envejecida y fiel, va a despertar la ternura y el instinto de protección del hombre. Ella le cuenta como fue vendida a los diez años por una madre cargada de hijos a los que no podía mantener, y entonces el escritor siente la necesidad de ayudar a Mercedes a encontrar a su madre. Pero la búsqueda estará llena de azares y de episodios cómicos, a la vez que dejará al descubierto al auténtico y frágil Julián, distanciado también de su padre, aunque por motivos bien diferentes pero a los que se deberá enfrentar. Esta historia de una amistad improbable y de reencuentros familiares constituye el relato más brillante de Jaime Bayly, que nos cautiva desde el primer momento por su insólita habilidad para ir de lo grave a lo hilarante.…
