Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rooted in tradición mexicana and infused with Texas food culture, tacos are some of Texans’ all-time favorite foods. In The Tacos of Texas, the taco journalists Mando Rayo and Jarod Neece take us on a muy sabroso taco tour around the state as they discover the traditions, recipes, stories, and personalities behind puffy tacos in San Antonio, trompo tacos in Dallas, breakfast tacos in Austin, carnitas tacos in El Paso, fish tacos in Corpus Christi, barbacoa in the Rio Grande Valley, and much more. Starting with the basics—tortillas, fillings, and salsas—and how to make, order, and eat tacos, the authors highlight ten taco cities/regions of Texas. For each place, they describe what makes the tacos distinctive, name their top five places to eat, and listen to the locals tell their taco stories. They hear from restaurant owners, taqueros, abuelitas, chefs, and patrons—both well-known and everyday folks—who talk about their local taco history and culture while sharing authentic recipes and recommendations for the best taco purveyors. Whether you can’t imagine a day without tacos or you’re just learning your way around the trailers, trucks, and taqueros that make tacos happen, The Tacos of Texas is the indispensable guidebook, cookbook, and testimonio.

Book excerpt: Nuevamente estoy aquí, presentándoles mi segunda producción literaria. Soy Migdalia Rodríguez Ríos, puertorriqueña radicada en Florida, Estados Unidos de América, me desempeño en el campo de la salud, tengo varios pasatiempos favoritos tales como, leer, escribir, la música y la jardinería. Después de haber publicado mi primer libro de poemas titulado Sueños y Esencias en Octubre del 2011, colección de temas más emocionales, configurados desde una edad muy temprana, no tenía decidido seguir escribiendo para publicar otro libro. Sin embargo la decisión se presentó automática ya que luego de salir publicado el libro, mi mejor amiga, me regaló una libreta muy bonita y curiosa, me gustó tanto, que abrirla y comenzar a escribir fue la misma acción. En ella se encuentra esta nueva colección de poemas, Inmensidad. Este libro es más jocoso y variado, hay más madurez al escribir. Desde el punto de vista del autor hay crítica social, escritos dedicados a la naturaleza, historias verdaderas narradas en poesía no sólo de experiencias del autor, sino también historias narradas por otros, mayormente escritos en primera persona. Me gusta el verso libre, pero también la rima se encuentra en mi poesía. Espero disfruten este nuevo trabajo que con la bendición de mi padre desde el cielo, me enorgullece compartir con los amantes de la poesía, familiares y amigos. Aquí, mi palabra escrita una vez más.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection is a beautifully crafted exploration of life in the Texas-Mexico borderlands. Written by Norma Elia Cantú, the award-winning author of Canícula, this collection carries the perspective of a powerful force in Chicana literature—and literature worldwide. The poems are a celebration of culture, tradition, and creativity that navigates themes of love, solidarity, and political transformation. Deeply personal yet warmly relatable, these poems flow from Spanish to English gracefully. With Gloria Anzaldúa’s foundational work as an inspiration, Meditación Fronteriza unveils unique images that provide nuance and depth to the narrative of the borderlands. Poems addressed to talented and influential women such as Gwendolyn Brooks and Adrienne Rich, among others, pour gratitude and recognition into the collection. While many of the poems in Meditación Fronteriza are gentle and inviting, there are also moments that grieve for the state of the borderlands, calling for political resistance.

Download or read book Ausente en busca de s written by Gabriela Coronado and published by CopIt ArXives. This book was released on 2019-10-15 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este libro es el resultado de un experimento al que la autora llama metafóricamente simbiogénesis poética. Esta metáfora representa el proceso de diálogo entre las imágenes y las palabras que se agolpaban tratando de descifrar el momento en que ella se encontraba, entre dos lugares y dos lenguas que son entrañablemente suyas. A veces los poemas nacieron recorriendo las calles con una cámara o un teléfono mientras intentaba descubrir la mirada. Otras surgieron mientras caminaba al lado del río cuando iba al pan, o entre calles explorando nuevos lugares. Sin pensarlo, mientras regresaba a casa en el camión y estaba ahı́ haciendo nada –ensimismada con sus propios pensamientos– las palabras e imágenes se agolpaban urgiéndola a escribir aunque fuera en el teléfono. En este libro, Gabriela Coronado nos entrega una serie de fotografías y poemas intimistas entrelazados al grado de --algunas veces-- ser indistinguibles entre sí. Imágenes y palabras en fusión, en reflexión, en búsqueda permanente.
