Reviews

A veritable everything-but-the-kitchen-sink compendium of modern Latino prose and speech, this volume gives voice to the underappreciated work and art of Mexicans, Puerto Ricans and Mexican-Americans. - Publishers Weekly Barrios and Borderlands: Cultures of Latinos and Latinas in the United States by Denis Lynn Daly Heyck, is, in a nutshell, just plain fun reading...Heyck has made an important contribution to the understanding from without and self-reflection from within of the Latino community. As a latino myself I felt enriched by Barrios and Borderlands. I can imagine non-Latinos coming away from this book ....feeling kindred in spirit in this adventure called America - at least I hope they do. -Raul Nino, Hungry Mind Review ... The work is balanced with contributions from many groups and contains a statistical appendix about Latins in the United States....Since Latins are moving everywhere-though sometimes they are not visible, they are there-this book belongs in every library. -Rene Perez-Lopez, ibrary Journal
