Remembering the Hacienda History And Memory in the Mexican American Southwest

"An important contribution to the study of Chicana/o literature. This work is significant because not only do we see how this applies to the hacienda narratives he reads but we also gain a better understanding of the socio-political implications of memory for Mexican American inter- and intra- group relations. For these reasons, his work is a valuable contribution to an ongoing search for new historical paradigms in Chicana/o studies, especially in the emergent debates about the power and limitation of narrative. Remembering the Haciendais a well-theorized and researched study that will appeal to scholars and students of Chicana/o-Latina/o studies, American literature (especially those with an interest in multi-ethnic literatures), as well as Borderland, American, and Transnational studies. Perez's project is well-conceived, clearly organized, and lucidly written."--Louis Mendoza, University of MinnesotaPerez, Vincent is the author of 'Remembering the Hacienda History And Memory in the Mexican American Southwest', published 2006 under ISBN 9781585445110 and ISBN 1585445118.
