The Impossible Land,
This review is from: The Impossible Land: Story and Place in California's Imperial Valley (Paperback)
Words, weathered and wind-blown across the sands of place, The Impossible Land. Phillip H. Round brings you into this place. His homeland, his father's homeland... his sisters, brothers, cousins, friends and strangers. Past and present. The last of the Anglo American West clashing against El Norte on its southern border; infiltrated by the Eastern Pacific at a time of the great second war. All cultivated on a human face that existed long before them. Barely noticeable now, except by those who need to know. Who have to know. Heat and cold, The Impossible Land is a challenge of understanding why. Why come at all, why try to stay? A review of the living struggle that in the end slowly, deliberately, grinds the people back into grains of sand, wind-blown and rippled across the pages of The Impossible Land. A place we should all visit.
