5.0 out of 5 stars
Inclusive Overview

Hit & Miss
Might be hard to call any of this a real "miss" because the selections themselves are so short they're overwith before you can come to dislike them. I've never read Cisneros before.

I enjoyed her defending America as an American/Mexican more than a Mexican/American. She has a very clear determination to keep the difference distinguished.

Of the short-shorts, "Spic-Spanish" and "Hair" had to be two of my favorites. |
