This book gave birth to my interest in Latino literature. An absolute must for the literature section of any high school library, for any Latinos or for any one with a love of literature. As close to my own heart as African-American literature. Details the struggle of Latinos with short stories and poetry, that begins at the heart of the Latino conscience. It is time for them to be heard..... Truly among the best in Latino lit.

U.S. Latino Literature is a critical guide for students and teachers providing an excellent scholarly introduction filling a gap in Latino studies. Prominent scholars in field provide 18 essays which show how to use American Latino literature in the classroom, focusing on major works appropriate for both high school and undergraduate study. A fine reference.
