From the Publisher: Newly revised and updated, Mexicanos tells the rich and vibrant story of Mexicans in the United States. Emerging from the ruins of Aztec civilization and from centuries of Spanish contact with indigenous people, Mexican culture followed the Spanish colonial frontier northward and put its distinctive mark on what became the southwestern United States. Shaped by their Indian and Spanish ancestors, deeply influenced by Catholicism, and tempered by an often difficult existence, Mexicans continue to play an important role in U.S. society, even as the dominant Anglo culture strives to assimilate them. Thorough and balanced, Mexicanos makes a valuable contribution to the understanding of the Mexican population of the United States-a growing minority who are a vital presence in 21st-century America.

For an undocumented immigrant, what is the true cost of the American dream? Julissa Arce shares her story in a riveting memoir. When she was 11 years old Julissa Arce left Mexico and came to the United States on a tourist visa to be reunited with her parents, who dreamed the journey would secure her a better life. When her visa expired at the age of 15, she became an undocumented immigrant. Thus began her underground existence, a decades long game of cat and mouse, tremendous family sacrifice, and fear of exposure. After the Texas Dream Act made a college degree possible, Julissa's top grades and leadership positions landed her an internship at Goldman Sachs, which led to a full time position--one of the most coveted jobs on Wall Street. Soon she was a vice president, a rare Hispanic woman in a sea of suits and ties, yet still guarding her 'underground' secret. In telling her personal story of separation, grief, and ultimate redemption, Arce shifts the immigrant conversation, and changes the perception of what it means to be an undocumented immigrant

She has just retired from the college where she taught English when her beloved husband, Sam, suddenly dies. And then more jolts: her bighearted but unstable sister disappears, and Antonia returns home one evening to find a pregnant, undocumented teenager on her doorstep. Antonia has always sought direction in the literature she loves-lines from her favorite authors play in her head like a soundtrack-but now she finds that the world demands more of her than words. Afterlife is a compact, nimble, and sharply droll novel. Set in this political moment of tribalism and distrust, it asks: What do we owe those in crisis in our families, including-maybe especially-members of our human family? How do we live in a broken world without losing faith in one another or ourselves? And how do we stay true to those glorious souls we have lost? USA, 176pp.

Publisher Annotation: What do we know about the boom in Latin-American literature and the literary revolution that it brought about? Xavier Ayén reveals it to us in this thrilling chronicle. There are no plaques commemorating it, but the most important movement in Spanish-language literature during the 20th century started in Barcelona between 1967 and 1976. The Latin-American boom was equally a mix of revolutionary support and a polyphonic phenomenon that was brought together in the Catalonian city by editors, literary agents, and bars where Franco's dictatorship became ever more fragile, in a process in which it's also necessary to travel to Mexico City, Buenos Aires, Havana, Paris, and New York. In this book, Xavi Ayén culminates ten years of research that led him through more than 300 bibliographic and living sources. Not only are we presented with interviews of the boom's great protagonists, but there is also a wealth of previously unknown documents and accounts from the collective memory of the time: Vargas Llosa shouting for the goals of his compatriot Hugo Sotil at Camp Nou, García Márquez being mistaken for a mechanic when he takes his luxury car to the gas station, Carlos Fuentes memorizing the perfumes of the women he dances with, Carmen Balcells giving identical bonbons to the members of the Swedish Academy and her secretaries. This book the 2013 Gaziel Prize for Biography and Memoirs in Barcelona. The current edition includes new facts, testimonies, and revelations compiled in recent years by the author. Those Boom Years is the story of a group of friends who changed literature forever. Spain, 560pp.
