ABOUT THE AUTHOR Alberto Alvaro Ríos is Regents Professor at Arizona State University, Tempe. ACCLAIM \"Colorful, hurtful, as real as legend, this book provides a wonderful new access to a large but mostly unperceived culture and will loom large in any approach to the emerging art of the Mexican worldview in English. Ríos is an artist.\"-- Choice \"The Iguana Killer is not the Chicano version of Catcher in the Rye--but it is close.\"-- San Antonio Express-News \"In his cool, unassertive way, Ríos taps many moods, keeping a controlled but flexible rein on the emotions of his characters and their experiences. These are not Anglo stories or Mexican stories but the unique amalgam we call Chicano--the real thing at last.\"-- John Barkham Reviews\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFront Jacket\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSet along the Southwestern border, these stories explore growing up Hispanic and weaving together three distinct worlds--Mexico, the United States, and childhood.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlberto Alvaro Rios is Regents Professor at Arizona State University, Tempe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 128\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.37 x 9.09 x 6.07 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e July 01, 1998\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43964837134471,"sku":"9780826319227","price":44.91,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/Q8oujqcjwx9780826319227.webp?v=1771667616","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/the-iguana-killer-twelve-stories-of-the-heart-paperback","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
