Paperback. Zustand: Fair. 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. Zustand: 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.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Cada vez que agachamos la cabeza, nos sometemos o accedemos a peticiones irracionales, le damos un duro golpe a la autoestima: nos flagelamos. Y aunque salgamos bien librados por el momento, logrando disminuir la adrenalina y la incomodidad que genera la ansiedad, nos queda el sinsabor de la derrota. Qui n no se ha mirado alguna vez al espejo tratando de perdonarse la sumisi n o no haber dicho lo que en verdad pensaba? Qui n no ha sentido, as sea de vez en cuando, la lucha interior entre la indignaci n por el agravio y el miedo a enfrentarlo? Aun as , en cada uno de nosotros hay un reducto de principios donde el yo se niega a rendir pleites a y se rebela. Tenemos la capacidad de indignarnos cuando alguien viola nuestros derechos o somos v ctimas de la humillaci n, la explotaci n o el maltrato: podemos decir NO.En el proceso de aprender a querernos a nosotros mismos, junto al autoconcepto, la autoimagen, la autoestima y la autoeficacia, que ya he mencionado en Aprendiendo a quererse a s mismo, hay que abrirle campo a un nuevo auto: el autorrespeto, la tica personal que separa lo negociable de lo no negociable, el punto de no retorno.
