Description:
Houston, Texas, USA: Arte Publico Press, 1987. BF3 - A trade paperback book, probably a first paperback edition, in very good condition. A tight, clean, sound copy in black and white photo illustrated wraps with minor overall shelf wear plus plus some light chipping to the front, bottom and top right corners. This book looks at a family history that demythologizes the nationalistic saga of Texas. The Texas Revolution is evoked through familial memories and symbols, such as the Shroud of Tamaulipas. But the full concentration of this novel actually ends up centered on present-day Houston and the main character who is dogged by Mexican American social and political problems and by a debilitating identity crisis. A satire on modern life that leaves no stone unturned. 319p.. Trade Paperback. Very Good/No Jacket as Issued. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
