¡Macho! (Spanish Version) (Spanish Edition)
"It rings true. His sentences and his characters have the smell of rich earth and honest sweat about them. His story, too, is direct and exciting." --The San Francisco Examiner"Macho!is poetic in its devotion to realistic detail and classic spareness of style. The relentless, spare detail is stunning, the descriptions of violent encounters among men trying to get to the border in any way possible are terrifying. At the same time, humor of a truly native sort contagiously informs the narrative. It is as if misery and laughter were twins in Villasenor's vision of the human condition." --Los Angeles Times
