Description
"This bilingual anthology - including sixteen of Mexico's finest writers born after 1945 - offers a glimpse of the rich tapestry of Mexican fiction. From small-town dramas to tales of urban savagery, this is a major event in contemporary Latin-American fiction. Readers will meet a Mariachi singer suffering from mediocrity, an embalmed man positioned in front of the TV, a man's lifelong imaginary friend, and the town prostitute whose funeral draws a crowd from the highest rungs of the social ladder." --Book Jacket
Language
Parallel text in English and Spanish.
