Becky and Her Friends Book

This novel in Hinojosa's Klail City Death Trip Series of novels, which follows generations of Anglos and Mexicans in the fictional Rio Grande Valley of Klail City, Texas, focuses on a character who has previously not taken the limelight: the strong-willed, upwardly mobile Becky Escobar. He also reveals women's culture and language through his portraits and dialogue of other important women who have appeared in the series, such as Sammie Jo Perkins, Viola Barragan and others. Here, finally, sex and male-female relationships take center stage.
