An excellent contrast to Chicana/o fiction about Spanglish!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Chicano Discourse: Socio-Historic Perspectives (Paperback)
Chicano Discourse is an excellent work that explains and defines Chicano discourse through a ground-breaking socio-historical perspective. This work complements Chicana/o works of fiction in that it clearly illustrates how Chicano discourse is particular to time and space. In other words, Sanchez tells us why Chicano discourse is different throughout the Southwest and elswhere in the U.S. Challenging academia and in conversation with Gloria Anzaldua and Jose Antonio Burciaga,among others,Sanchez's brilliant perspective allows us to see why Spanglish is a unique dialect which is reflective of the lived experience(s) of Chicana/os in the U.S
