Book Synopsis A Place in El Paso by : Gloria López-Stafford
Download or read book A Place in El Paso written by Gloria López-Stafford and published by UNM Press. This book was released on 1996 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This memoir of growing up in El Paso in the 1940s and 1950s creates an entire city: the way a barrio awakens in the early morning sun, the thrill of a rare desert snow, the taste of fruit-flavored raspadas on summer afternoons, the "money boys" who beg from commuters passing back and forth to Juárez, and the mischief of children entertaining themselves in the streets. López-Stafford shows readers El Paso through the eyes of Yoya--short for Gloria--the high-spirited narrator, who is five years old when the book begins. Yoya is a survivor. Her young mother has died, leaving her in the care of her much older father, who tries to provide for his family by selling used clothing. Her brother Carlos, Padre Luna, and a community of children and women assume responsibility for Yoya, but like the inexplicable loss of her mother, unexpected changes separate her from her beloved barrio. The search for su lugar, her place, becomes a search for identity as Gloria seeks to understand her various homes and families.
Book Synopsis And Then It Hit Me by : Michele Molinari
Download or read book And Then It Hit Me written by Michele Molinari and published by So di non sapere. This book was released on 2020-01-22 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the accident to when the protagonist leaves hospital a week later, doctors and nurses, roommates and other patients on the neurosurgery ward accompany him in a forced and entirely dependent existence while their lives gradually intertwine and they become close. The account has a fast rhythm and is absorbing. We get a strong idea of the sense of impotence and the strain required to keep thoughts at bay, of the trust that the patient necessarily has to concede, and the discretion with which he finds the sense of self that goes beyond immodesty and the obscenity of the body on show. The stories of the other patients are told with kindness and detachment, never erring on the pathetic; while the way he finds to support his fellow patients is authentic and described with feeling. It is a brief but intense and full account, subjective but never self-indulgent, elegant and deeply felt. A tribute to resilience.

Book Synopsis Maria's Journey by : Ramon Arredondo
Download or read book Maria's Journey written by Ramon Arredondo and published by Indiana Historical Society. This book was released on 2013-07-25 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Born into the Mexican Revolution, Maria Perez entered an arranged marriage at age fourteen to Miguel Arredondo. The couple and their tiny daughter immigrated to the United States in the 1920s, living in a boxcar while Miguel worked for a Texas railroad and eventually settling in East Chicago, Indiana, where Miguel worked for Inland Steel. Their story includes much of early-twentieth-century America: the rise of unions, the plunge into the Great Depression, the patriotism of World War II, and the starkness of McCarthyism. It is flavored by delivery men hawking fruit and ice, street sports, and Saturday matinees that began with newsreels. Immigration status colors every scene, adding to their story deportation and citizenship, generational problems unique to new immigrants, and a miraculous message of hope.

Book Synopsis Mi María: Surviving the Storm by : Ricia Anne Chansky
Download or read book Mi María: Surviving the Storm written by Ricia Anne Chansky and published by Haymarket Books. This book was released on 2021-09-04 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Hurricane María made landfall in Puerto Rico in September 2017, it left no part of the archipelago unscathed. The hurricane triggered floods and mudslides, washed out roads, destroyed tens of thousands of homes, farms, and businesses, caused the largest blackout in US history, knocked out communications, led to widespread food, drinking water, and gasoline shortages, and caused thousands of deaths. The seventeen oral histories collected in Mi María: Surviving the Storm share stories of surviving the storm and its long aftermath as people waited for relief and aid that rarely arrived. Zaira and her husband floated on a patched air mattress for sixteen hours while floodwaters rose around them. The road washed out in front of Emmanuel as he desperately tried to drive his pregnant wife who had begun labor to the hospital. Luis and his father anxiously counted the days that the dialysis clinic remained closed and lifesaving treatment was unavailable, while Miliana’s mother was sent home from the hospital —undiagnosed— only to fall critically ill in her own home. Weaving together long-form oral histories and shorter testimonios, the book offers a multivocal peoples’ history of disaster that fosters a greater understanding of the failures of governmental disaster response and the correlating perseverance of the people impacted by these failures, highlighting the colonial relationship between Puerto Rico and the United States. Ultimately, the ways in which these oral histories demonstrate the strength of community response to disaster in Puerto Rico are pertinent to other parts of the world that are being impacted by our current climate emergency.
