Produktbeschreibung
In this collection of crónicas, essays, and experimental texts, Melanie Márquez Adams invites readers on a road trip with stops at the places throughout América that have shaped her identity and her writing, from the skyscrapers looming above the Río Guayas in Guayaquil, Ecuador, to the backyard of Dollywood in the smoky mountains of East Tennessee, from the dizzying cacophony of New York City to the undulating cornfields of Iowa as far as the eye can see. The author understands that, while some readers may expect harrowing border crossings and suffering at every turn, hers is a different type of immigrant story. With incisive social commentary and a dark sense of humor, she palpably conveys her struggles to find a sense of belonging between countries, languages, and cultures.
