72migrantes.com: Hope and Martyrdom at the Border
Alma Guillermoprieto is widely read in both the English- and Spanish- speaking worlds, where she's considered an authority on the cultural and political life of Mexico and South America - especially as they relate to the United States. Writing for the last thirty years with a journalist's breadth and depth - but also (and always) folding in her personal experiences - she traces the history of Latin America, while giving us a glimpse into its future. Quite simply, she has "set the standard for elegant writing in English on Latin America," writes The New York Times Book Review.
