Divided Borders Essays on Puerto Rican Identity eBook Juan Flores Reviews
These are essays of a scholarly nature from some very good writers on PR from any angle. Really good!
Juan Flores, using an exquisite prose, treats us throuh a series of separate essays dialectically united about the puertorrican culture and identity "crisis". The book is a firm statement against cultural nationalism, cultural "hispanofilia", and other purist visions inside the puertorrican culture context. It extends the puertorrican culture to those living in the states, taking as close case of study the ones living in New York. More than mere and engaging exposition, it proposes or tries to show us the headings the latinos should address in a counterhegemonic struggle against mainstream(in it's rigidest form) culture in the U. S.
This is my review of "Divided Borders" essays on Puerto Rican identity by Juan Flores. It is an extremely excellent series of essays that examines various aspects of Puerto Rican culture in respect to class,race,politics,ethnicity and gender
