{"product_id":"barrio-boy-university-of-notre-dame-press","title":"Barrio Boy (University of Notre Dame Press)","description":"Journey with Ernesto Galarza through time, place, and culture in this stunning memoir of Mexican American identity and acculturation.\nBarrio Boy is the remarkable story of one boy's journey from a Mexican village so small its main street didn't have a name, to the barrio of Sacramento, California, bustling and thriving in the early decades of the twentieth century. With vivid imagery and a rare gift for re-creating a child's sense of time and place, Ernesto Galarza gives an account of the early experiences of his extraordinary life―from revolution in Mexico to segregation in the United States―that will continue to engage readers for generations to come.\nSince it was first published in 1971, Galarza’s classic work has been assigned in high school and undergraduate classrooms across the country, profoundly affecting thousands of students who read this true story of acculturation into American life.\nThe 40th anniversary edition of this best-selling book includes a new text design and cover, as well an introduction by Ilan Stavans, the distinguished cultural critic and editor of the Norton Anthology of Latino Literature, which places Barrio Boy and Ernesto Galarza in historical context.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0268029792\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.0268029792.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Ernesto Galarza\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item is very worn but is perfectly usable.
