Villarreal Velásquez, José Antonio,

Pocho - 1a. ed. - 188 páginas Impreso

Jose Antonio Villarreal illuminates here the world of ´pochos,´ Americans whose parents come to the United States from Mexico. Set in Depression-era California, the novel focuses on Richard, a young pocho who experiences the intense conflict between loyalty to the traditions of his family´s past and attraction to new ideas. Richard´s struggle to achieve adulthood as a young man influenced by two worlds reveals both the uniqueness of the Mexican-American experiences and its common ties with the struggles of all Americans—whatever their past.
