Description

(English below) A través de su narrativa única y campechana, Manuel Camacho nos ofrece instantáneas de su infancia en México, sus numerosos y fallidos intentos de cruzar la frontera USA-Mex y, una vez en “El Norte”, su inevitable choque con la cultura “estadounidense”.A través de sus coloridas narraciones, nos enteramos sobre injusticias, triunfos y errores. Esta obra, ¿Tienes papeles?, no es un viaje, sino más bien un vagabundear que, en un momento u otro, hará que el lector se sonroje—reconociendo que vive experiencias similares—, sonreír y hasta reír. Throughhis unique, folksy narrative, Camacho gives us snapshots of his childhood in Mexico, his numerous and failed attempts to cross the Unites States border and —once in “El Norte”— his inevitable clash with the “American” culture. Through his colorful narrative we learn of injustices, triumphs, and blunders. Got Papers? is not a journey, but rather a roaming that, at one point or another, will make the reader to blush —recognizing living a similar gaffe—, to smile, or outright laugh.
