Ambivalent Welcome
There seems to be very little in English about the Great Mexican Migration to the United States that occurred in the decades following 'la crisis' in 1982. Here is a series of really beautiful, stirring narratives that take you directly into the lives of Latin immigrants to America, by Sam Quinones whose mastery of style and storytelling are spare yet novelistic and completely engaging. After a long frustrating search for material in English about the demographic transformation taking place in America, this book just fell into my hand. It is delicious and completely unexpected.
