PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Ralph Cintron is associate professor of rhetoric at the University of Iowa, Iowa City.
A special book that is just as much about inequality in the contemporary U.S. as it is about the way to research it. Cintron succeeds in doing what many well-intentioned policies do not. And he does it by looking and listening with great care, rather than assuming, condemning, or condoning. --Virginia Dominguez, author of White by Definition I am stunned, amazed, almost breathless at how good Angels' Town is. . . . Landmark, critical ethnography and rhetorical analysis. --David Jolliffe, DePaul University A remarkable piece of ethnographic work. . . . With the publication of this book, Cintron will take a well-deserved place in the company of the leading ethnographers both in Mexican-American studies and in the study of cultural poetics in general. --Jose Limon, author of Dancing with the Devil After years of debates about whether ethnographers can write about the lives of their subjects without colonizing them, Cintron, a master rhetorician, shows us that cultural anthropology is still possible-but we must come to it with a commitment to learning how to read the deep stories of resentment, longing, and loss that are embedded in the world of the everyday. . . . A stunning and important work that sets high standards for the new anthropology of Latino communities in the United States. --Ruth Behar, author of The Vulnerable Observer
