Book excerpt: Esta novela, ambientada en la turbulenta Cuba desde la post-independencia, la Revolución de Machado, la Constitución del 40, el golpe de estado de Batista, y finalmente el inicio de la Revolución Cubana, narra la vida de Josefina, madre de la autora, y cómo su relación con otras mujeres la lleva a desafiar la sociedad patriarcal. Lola, madre de Josefina y adolescente viuda de un oficial español, subsiste gracias al amor prohibido con su confesor. Minerva, la otra hija de Lola, es forzada por su marido a renunciar a la herencia que le dejó el cura. Gema, la mejor amiga de Josefina, es la heredera del rey del Habano, y la introduce en el glamoroso mundo de la burguesía habanera de los años veinte, mientras que Marcelina, la nana, inicia a su hija, Sonia Julia de Jesús, en el mundo de los orishas afrocubanos. Estrella es una campesina a quien Josefina convierte en empresaria; y Beatriz y Emelina, ilustran, ante la mirada crítica de la protagonista, el binomio republicano de la esposa y la amante. Josefina se propone un destino diferente para sí misma, no supeditarse nunca a la autoridad masculina. Para lograrlo, se apoya en un diálogo permanente con el Sagrado Corazón de Jesús, que comienza siempre con la misma pregunta: «Dime alma mía, ¿qué mal te aqueja?»

Download or read book Jesse s Bullet Train Mexicali s Yellow Days written by Jesus (Jesse) L. Dominguez and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2016-09-30 with total page 469 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about the amazing story of a US citizen who had to go to Mexico at age four (in the spring of 1958) due to family deportation from the USA and had to tough out extreme poverty; imagine being a partially blind child and having to attend grammar school in Mexico with no special help. He describes how he worked as a child selling vegetables; then, at age thirteen, his father dies, and he had to drop out of school to help the family survive. Together with his two younger brothers, he went to sell chocolate candy and gum in the streets of downtown Mexicali (a border town in the hot desert of Northwest Mexico (Baja California) until he had a chance to go to work in the USA, where he returned as a teenager in 1968, and went to work in farm labor to help his family in Mexico survive. He had to circumvent US child labor laws. Consequently, he had to face culture shock straight on. The Vietnam War was at its worst for US troops. The reappearance of racial conflicts in the USA was bad; black power, chicano power, and white power were common terms; the hippie movement was booming, and Martin L. Kings and Robert Kennedys assassination had just happened. The drug culture in the USA was thriving; antiwar demonstrations and riots were a common occurrence; Richard Nixon was coming into power; and the Apollo moon project was making headlines. In this narrative, he shares coping techniques for dealing with stress, hopelessness, and adversity. He suggests that, by connecting with people, he achieved personal success and shares his experiences in seeking mentors, joining events, meeting change agents (community workers, social workers, teachers, and counselors)and joining social movements. Jesse joined student organizations and the independent living movement and learned how to create opportunities that helped him rise from extreme poverty in a Northwest city of Mexico (Mexicali) to being a middle-class citizen in the USA (California) simply by following his mentors leads, by accepting peoples help, and by facing adversity straight on. This is a US citizen who brought back Mexican cultural values and applied them in his work as a vocational rehabilitation counselor in the USA. A very effective counselor, his mission in life is to help others in similar circumstances to succeed, to help family persevere, to say no to drugs or other bad influences, and to encourage others to carry on until the end of the fast train trip. Thats his philosophy of life. Here he shares a few examples of his counseling work, in hopes that these experiences and advice will help more people in similar circumstances to become achievers, not social welfaredependent individuals.

Download or read book Te esperar written by Tomás Ortiz Martínez and published by Odisea Editorial. This book was released on 2010-05 with total page 113 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A lo largo de una noche Antonio escribe febrilmente una carta. Una carta feroz, desgarradora y compulsiva cuyo autor no puede dejar de escribir durante una larga noche. La escritura es lo único que alivia el sufrido dolor de Antonio tras el abandono de Juanjo. “¿Recuerdas cuánto te quiero, a ti, cómo te quiero? ¿Recuerdas? ¿Me quieres recordar?” Antonio, que siempre ha huido del amor, de repente topa con él y lo único que hace es dejarlo escapar. Arrepentido y afligido la escritura de esta carta es como un conjuro para que regrese Juanjo; un descenso a sus propios infiernos, de los que sale una narración brillante y atrevida. Te esperaré, novela ganadora del II Premio Odisea de Literatura, acreditó a Tomás Ortiz (Madrid, 1978) como uno de los autores más destacados de su generación. Apasionado de la literatura desde la infancia, Tomás inició con Te esperaré (2000) su particular visión sobre la pérdida del ser amado que continuó con Seguiré aquí cuando despiertes (2003) y que culmina con Los amigos de Sebastián y Tu otra mitad (2008). A estos títulos hay que añadir un pequeño y delicioso pecado llamado Contactos (Libido, 2001) que aún consigue sonrojar al autor.

Download or read book Californio Voices written by José Mariá Amador and published by University of North Texas Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the early 1870s, Hubert H. Bancroft and his assistants set out to record the memoirs of early Californios, one of them being eighty-three-year-old Don Jose Maria Amador, a former Forty-Niner during the California Gold Rush and soldado de cuera at the Presidio of San Francisco. Amador tells of reconnoitering expeditions into the interior of California, where he encountered local indigenous populations. He speaks of political events of Mexican California and the widespread confiscation of the Californios' goods, livestock, and properties when the United States took control. A friend from Mission Santa Cruz, Lorenzo Asisara, also describes the harsh life and mistreatment the Indians faced from the priests. Both the Amador and Asisara narratives were used as sources in Bancroft's writing but never published themselves. Gregorio Mora-Torres has now rescued them from obscurity and presents their voices in English translation (with annotations) and in the original Spanish on facing pages. This bilingual edition will be of great interest to historians of the West, California, and Mexican American studies.

Download or read book Words of the True Peoples Palabras de los Seres Verdaderos written by Carlos Montemayor and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2014-05-06 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As part of the larger, ongoing movement throughout Latin America to reclaim non-Hispanic cultural heritages and identities, indigenous writers in Mexico are reappropriating the written word in their ancestral tongues and in Spanish. As a result, the long-marginalized, innermost feelings, needs, and worldviews of Mexico's ten to twenty million indigenous peoples are now being widely revealed to the Western societies with which these peoples coexist. To contribute to this process and serve as a bridge of intercultural communication and understanding, this groundbreaking, three-volume anthology gathers works by the leading generation of writers in thirteen Mexican indigenous languages: Nahuatl, Maya, Tzotzil, Tzeltal, Tojolabal, Tabasco Chontal, Purepecha, Sierra Zapoteco, Isthmus Zapoteco, Mazateco, Ñahñu, Totonaco, and Huichol. Volume Three contains plays by six Mexican indigenous writers. Their plays appear first in their native language, followed by English and Spanish translations. Montemayor and Frischmann have abundantly annotated the Spanish, English, and indigenous-language texts and added glossaries and essays that introduce the work of each playwright and discuss the role of theater within indigenous communities. These supporting materials make the anthology especially accessible and interesting for nonspecialist readers seeking a greater understanding of Mexico's indigenous peoples.
