Yes,it’s a lusty book but at its heart it’s about perseverance in the face of colonial oppression AND the lingering mindset.This is no slave and master romance. It’s I won’t be a slave or mastered by anything or anyone. We determine our worth even in the midst of erasure. Malinalli deserved to live

What do you think are the best American paperback crimes originals from the late 1940s/50s that are not well known? I’m not talking Dan Marlowe, Goodis, Thompson or Elliott Chaz, etc. l’m talking about the really good stuff that I might not have heard of, that has flown under the radar.
