This multicultural reader for first-year composition courses poses critical questions about American culture and the construction of identity. Beyond Borders includes both conventional writing (essays, poems, and short fiction) and less conventional works (photographs, advertisements, graphic novels, and maps). The thematically arranged readings raise questions and ideas about both individual and group identity. The interactive format shows students how to read and write by freely crossing the borders between writer and reader, student and critic, and consumer and producer.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Beyond Borders,
This review is from: Beyond Borders: A Cultural Reader (Paperback)
Beyond Borders was a very insightful and interesting text book. It comprises of many short essays, so the reader gets to read many different points of views. The authors of the essays are from many different cultures, ranging from Mexican to African American. The essays are very informative and encourage the reader to think about the material. They are not a simple read, but are not too difficult for college level audiences.
The essays in this text book focus mainly on the problems of racism and identity. They discuss solutions and reasons for these problems, as well as their personal opinions on the subjects. The authors of the essays are from a wide array of cultures, so the book is very diverse and exposes the reader to many insights. I found this book to be an interesting read for a text book. It really encouraged me to think for myself and form my own opinions.

This review is from: Beyond Borders: A Cultural Reader (Paperback)
The book was in incredible condition. Brand new!..for less than $10!!.. I will definetly buy from the merchant and amazon again. I already told most of my college friends about amazon's savings. If you had a refferal program you could make so much from college students because everyone knows that they won't do anything unless they get sometihng out if it. even if it is like free shipping with a e-mailed code or $10 off referring 'x' amount of people.
