Zigzagger (Latino Voices)

Summary: Taking Chicano/Latino Literature to New Heights
Review: Manuel Munoz's ZIGZAGGER is phenomenal! Each story in this collection has the ability to touch its reader in the most profound ways, teasing out the hidden and repressed emotions one could not have previously imagined the subject of literature. Not only is Munoz's writing stunningly elegant, it is consciously located at the intersection of history, personal experience, and culture. This book has taken Chicano/Latino literature to where it needed to go: the next level.

Summary: Not your average Chicano literature..more like Human Lit
Review: This book is classified as a Chicano Literature. But it's much more than that. The stories in the book trascend any ethnic label and geography. Any reader can identify with the pain, love, suffering, happiness, loss and gain the characters in the book feel. This is not a book about Chicanos in the Central Valley, California. Heck, I have never been (nor plan to) go there. This is a book about you. Be brave. Pick up the book and read about yourself.
