    <![CDATA[En una bella edición y dentro de su colección Centzontle, el FCE recupera los discursos de Gabriel García Márquez y Carlos Fuentes pronunciados en torno a una conmemoración única: los 80 años del Premio Nobel colombiano y los 40 años de novela Cien años de soledad. Una celebración de la cual el lector puede ser testigo privilegiado a través de este libro. García Márquez recuerda en estas páginas que &quot;ni en el más delirante&quot; de sus sueños imaginó que su novela llegaría a ser leída por casi 50 millones de lectores, un número tal de personas que si vivieran en un solo pedazo de tierra sería uno de los 20 países más poblados del mundo.]]>

    <![CDATA[&lt;div&gt;Hailed as a masterpiece since its publication in 1962, <em>The Death of Artemio Cruz</em> is Carlos Fuentes's haunting voyage into the soul of modern Mexico. Its acknowledged place in Latin American fiction and its appeal to a fresh generation of readers have warranted this new translation by Alfred Mac Adam, translator (with the author) of Fuentes's <em>Christopher Unborn</em>.<br/><br/>As in all his fiction, but perhaps most powerfully in this book, Fuentes is a passionate guide to the ironies of Mexican history, the burden of its past, and the anguish of its present.<br/>&lt;/div&gt;]]>

    <![CDATA[The intimate life of artist Frida Kahlo is wonderfully revealed in the illustrated journal she kept during her last 10 years. This passionate and at times surprising record contains the artist's thoughts, poems, and dreams; many reflecting her stormy relationship with her husband, artist Diego Rivera, along with 70 mesmerising watercolour illustrations. The text entries in brightly coloured inks make the journal as captivating to look at as it is to read. Her writing reveals the artist's political sensibilities, recollections of her childhood, and her enormous courage in the face of more than thirty-five operations to correct injuries she had sustained in an accident at the age of eighteen.]]>

    <![CDATA[&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;One of Carlos Fuentes&#8217;s greatest works, <em>The Old Gringo</em> tells the story of Ambrose Bierce, the American writer, soldier, and journalist, and of his last mysterious days in Mexico living among Pancho Villa&#8217;s soldiers, particularly his encounter with General Tomas Arroyo. In the end, the incompatibility of the two countries (or, paradoxically, their intimacy) claims both men, in a novel that is, most of all, about the tragic history of two cultures in conflict.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;]]>

    <![CDATA[One of the great masterpieces of modern Latin American fiction, <em>Terra Nostra</em> is concerned with nothing less than the history of Spain and of South America, with the Indian Gods and with Christianity, with the birth, the passion, and the death of civilizations. Fuentes skillfully blends a wide range of literary forms, stories within stories, Mexican and Spanish myth, and famous literary characters in this novel that is both a historical epic and an apocalyptic vision of modern times. Terra Nostra is that most ambitious and rare of creations&#151;a total work of art.]]>

    <![CDATA[It is New Years Eve, 1969. The narrator, an internationally renowned writer in his forties and a self-proclaimed Don Juan, meets the beautiful American movie actress Diana Soren at a party and is fascinated by her elusive charm. But infatuation becomes doomed pursuit as Diana spurns him and flees into an intrigue of paranoia and sexual jealousy. An extraordinary exploration of love, lust, betrayal, and humiliation, Diana is also a powerfully affecting novel about a vital moment in the chronicle of our times, a crucial intersection of history and art; salvation was no longer to be found in literature, and love was thwarted by the very forces that nourished it.]]>

    <![CDATA[<em>The Good Conscience</em> is Carlos Fuentes's second novel.  The scene is Guanajuato, a provincial capital in Central Mexico, once one of the world's richest mining centers.  The Ceballos family has been reinstated to power, and adolescent Jaime Ceballos, its only heir, is torn between the practical reality of his family's life and the idealism of his youth and his Catholic education.  His father is a good man but weak; his uncle is powerful, yet his actions are inconsistent with his professed beliefs. Jaime's struggle to emerge as a man with a &quot;good conscience&quot; forms the theme of the book: can a rebel correct the evils of an established system and at the same time retain the integrity of his principles?<br/>]]>

    <![CDATA[Here is a true literary event–the long-awaited new novel by Carlos Fuentes, one of the world’s great writers. By turns a tragedy and a farce, an acidic black comedy and an indictment of modern politics, The Eagle’s Throne is a seriously entertaining and perceptive story of international intrigue, sexual deception, naked ambition, and treacherous betrayal.<br/>In the near future, at a meeting of the United Nations Security Council, Mexico’s idealistic president has dared to vote against the U.S. occupation of Colombia and Washington’s refusal to pay OPEC prices for oil. Retaliation is swift. Concocting a “glitch” in a Florida satellite, America’s president cuts Mexico’s communications systems–no phones, faxes, or e-mails–and plunges the country into an administrative nightmare of colossal proportions.<br/><br/>Now, despite the motto that “a Mexican politician never puts anything in writing,” people have no choice but to communicate through letters, which Fuentes crafts with a keen understanding of man’s motives and desires. As the blizzard of activity grows more and more complex, political adversaries come out to prey. The ineffectual president, his scheming cabinet secretary, a thuggish and ruthless police chief, and an unscrupulous, sensual kingmaker are just a few of the fascinating characters maneuvering and jockeying for position to achieve the power they all so desperately crave.<br/><br/><br/><em>From the Hardcover edition.</em>]]>

    <![CDATA[&lt;div&gt;Two narratives twine through this superb novel: one introduces Gabriel Atlan-Ferrara, a fabled orchestral conductor, and his great passion,  Inez Prada, a red-haired Mexican diva; the other is a mysterious telling of the first encounter in human history between a man and a woman. Berlioz's music for <em>The Damnation of Faust</em> brings Gabriel and Inez together, while the emerging love of neh-el and ah-nel--the original lovers--echoes the Faustian pact of love and death. Linking these narratives is a beautiful crystal seal that belongs to Atlan-Ferrara, its meaning an enigma that obsesses him. And like the light refracted through the seal, these stories begin in prehistory and spiral out into infinity. <br/>	In <em>Inez</em>, we find Carlos Fuentes at the height of his magical and realist powers. This profound and beautiful work confirms his standing as one of the world's pre-eminent novelist.<br/>&lt;/div&gt;]]>

    <![CDATA[I come from a family where each family member found a way to hurt the others. Then, in remorse, each one hurt themselves.  <p>A rancher wants his four sons to become priests &#8213;they think differently. A man is humiliated by his master, yet his son would like to humiliate him even further. A mother relinquishes her career as a singer and wonders if it was worth it; her daughter has given up on the world and lives through reality TV shows. The presidents son rebels against his father but depends on him for protection. A woman suffers her husbands sadism and remembers how their love began. A commanding officer must choose which of his two sons will live. A priest hides his daughter in a small village until a rival surfaces. Three daughters gather around their fathers casket for the last time in 10 years.     The different stories in this novel are punctuated by choruses, some humorous, most of them tragic, that lend their voice to the voiceless: young beggars, raped daughters, orphans, rival families, rich kids, dealers, hard core gangs that walk down the streets of Los Angeles or make their way up the jungles in Central America. Todas las familias felices embodies the narratives contained within the encroaching conflicts of todays Mexico, and, by extension, to Latin America and the modern urban world.    Description in Spanish: Yo vengo de una familia en la que cada miembro daaba de algn modo a los dems. Luego, arrepentidos, cada uno se daaba a s mismo.    <p>Un ranchero quiere que sus cuatro hijos sean sacerdotes; ellos piensan distinto. Un hombre es humillado por su patrn; su hijo quisiera humillarlo ms. Una madre renuncia a su carrera de cantante y se pregunta si vali la pena; su hija renuncia al mundo y vive a travs de los reality shows. El hijo del presidente se rebela contra su padre, pero depende de su proteccin. Una mujer sufre el sadismo de su marido porque recuerda cmo se inici su amor. Una madre dolorosa explica la vida de su hija al hombre que la asesin. Una pareja sesentona se reencuentra y se pregunta si de veras fueron jvenes amantes. Un comandante debe escoger quin vivir de sus dos hijos. La vieja madre de un joven mariachi lo rescata. Una fiel pareja gay enfrenta la tentacin. Una chica fea hace peligrar el matrimonio de su primo. Un cura esconde a su hija en una aldea hasta que aparece un rival. Un mujeriego se niega a casarse con su amante por temor a que eso mate el placer. Un actor es obligado a!   enfrentar la realidad por su hijo minusvlido. Un hermano incmodo desafa la vida de su frater. El cnico Don Juan juega con dos mujeres que le dan su merecido. Tres hijas se renen en torno al fretro de su padre por ltima vez en diez aos. Estas historias son puntuada por coros, algunos humorsticos, la mayora trgicos, que dan voz a los sin-voz: nios mendicantes, hijas violadas, hurfanos, parientes rivales, muchachos ricos, traficantes, pandillas asesinas que descienden de las calles de Los ngeles o ascienden de las selvas de Centroamrica. Todas las familias felices es la polifona narrativa de los ramales conflictivos del Mxico contemporneo y, por extensin, de la Amrica Latina y del mundo urbano moderno.</p></p>]]>

    <![CDATA[In this new novel Carlos Fuentes returns with great force to the political novel that he has developed with great success. This story will leave an impact on its readers because of the current political aspects that it presents.  <p>It is the year 2020, in a Mexico without telecommunications or computers because the United States (owner and exclusive supplier of everything) has punished them. This is also the year in which the presidency is being disputed, in other words, it will be decided who will seat in the Seat of Power to never leave it. In these cases there is no loyalty: to obtain power, any father would betray his son, any wife her spouse, the Secretary of State would deceive the Head of State; anything can happen. The winner, the Anointed one, hides an amazing secret that he will need to conceal at all costs.  <p>Description in Spanish:  <p>En el año 2020, en un México sin telecomunicaciones ni computadoras porque los norteamericanos (proveedores únicos) lo tienen castigado, se desata la lucha por la presidencia, es decir, por sentarse en la Silla del Águila y no abandonarla nunca. Aquí no hay lealtad que valga: por conseguir el poder, el padre es capaz de traicionar al hijo, la esposa al cónyuge, el secretario de Estado al Primer Mandatario. Y todo puede pasar: crímenes de viejos caciques, espionaje de supuestos allegados, maniobras tétricas, extorsión sexual&#133; e incluso, que reaparezca en la escena política un fallido candidato presidencial al que todos creyeron asesinado años atrás. El triunfador, el Ungido, oculta un pasmoso secreto que será necesario preservar a toda costa.</p></p></p>]]>

    <![CDATA[These four short stories all take place in different places throughout Mexico. The characters in each story appear in other stories and their lives intertwine with one another. All compiled pose the reader to question whether any of it is real or simply a mirage.   <p>Blurb in Spanish:  <p>En estos cuatro relatos confluyen lo trágico y lo festivo, con personajes que transitan por espacios tan dispares y paradójicos como ellos mismos: el general nostálgico de la Revolución Mexicana corrompida, el lumpen visceral que se convierte en guardaespaldas de su propio verdugo, la anciana que al lado de un niño paralítico no acepta su tiempo y su realidad, y un solterón acaudalado que no alcanza a comprender la pobreza; todos habitantes de una ciudad dolorosa, caótica y resentida: la ciudad de México.</p></p>]]>

    <![CDATA[This is the story of the spiritual journey that leads Jaime Ceballos through a labyrinth of forgotten memories up until the end of his youth when he decides where life will take him.  In Las buenas conciencias, Carlos Fuentes vividly narrates Jaime's youth in which the young man debates himself on his family's moral values (easier to dismiss than to follow) versus his own religious impulses, good habits versus social relationships, the pain of living without his biological parents versus the happiness of discovering life, between sin and salvation.]]>

    <![CDATA[&lt;div&gt;In <em>Myself with Others</em>, Fuentes has assembled essays reflecting three of the great elements of his work: autobiography, love of literature, and politics.  They include his reflections on his beginning as a writer, his celebrated Harvard University commencement address, and his trenchant examinations of Cervantes, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, and Borges.<br/>&lt;/div&gt;]]>

    <![CDATA[&lt;div&gt;Translated by Margaret Sayers Peden<br/><br/>During a long, lingering lunch at the Automobile Club de France, the elderly Comte de Branly tells a story to a friend, unnamed until the closing pages, who is in fact the first-person narrator of the novel. Branly's story is of a family named Heredia: Hugo, a noted Mexican archaeologist, and his young son, Victor, whom Branly met in Cuernavaca and who became his house guest in Paris. There they are gradually drawn into a mysterious connection with the French Victor Heredia and his son, known as Andre. There is a hard-edged emphasis on the theme of relations between the Old World and the New, as Branly's twilit, Proustian existence is invaded and overcome by the hot, chaotic, and baroque proliferation of the Caribbean jungle. <br/>&lt;/div&gt;]]>

    <![CDATA[This is Carlos Fuentes' big return to fantastic literature in which he brings together six stories about supernatural beings; ghosts, demons, angels, apparitions, witches, and vampires, who, as it usually happens in fantastic literature, burst into daily lives in an unexpected and definitive way, to change the destiny of those they meet. In their plots, Fuentes also proposes disquieting ideas and questions about love, death, God and vampires.  <p>Description in Spanish: Fantasmas, brujas, ángeles, vampiros&#133; A pesar de todas las apariencias de modernidad, los seres que acostumbramos llamar imaginarios no mueren por completo, como si nuestros temores más grandes y nuestros más ardorosos deseos sólo entrasen en receso, guardados en un sótano junto a cachivaches inservibles, hasta que un accidente, una casualidad o fuerzas oscuras los convocan.   <p>¿Es vida este breve paso, esta premura entre la cuna y la tumba</p></p>]]>

    <![CDATA[In this masterly, deeply personal, and provocative book, the internationally renowned Mexican writer Carlos Fuentes, whose work has been called &#8220;a combination of Poe, Baudelaire, and Isak Dinesen&#8221; (<em>Newsweek</em>), steps back to survey the wellsprings of art and ideology, the events that have shaped our time, and his extraordinary life and fiercest passions.<br/><br/>Arranged alphabetically from &#8220;Amore&#8221; to &#8220;Zurich,&#8221; <em>This I Believe</em> takes us on a marvelous inner journey with a great writer. Fuentes ranges wide, from contradictions inherent in Latin American culture and politics to his long friendship with director Luis Buñuel. <br/><br/>Along the way, we find reflection on the mixed curse and blessing of globalization; memories of a sexual initiation in Zurich; a fond tracing of a family tree heavy with poets, dreamers, and diplomats; evocations of the streets, cafés, and bedrooms of Washington, Paris, Santiago de Chile, Cambridge, Oaxaca, and New York; and a celebration of literary heroes including Balzac, Cervantes, Faulkner, Kafka, and Shakespeare. Throughout, Fuentes captivates with the power of his intellect and his prose.<br/><br/><br/>Here, too, are vivid, often heartbreaking glimpses into his personal life. &#8220;Silvia&#8221; is a powerful love letter to his beloved wife. In &#8220;Children,&#8221; Fuentes recalls the births of his daughters and the tragic death of his son; in &#8220;Cinema&#8221; he relives the magic of films such as <em>Citizen Kane</em> and <em>The Wizard of Oz</em>. Further extending his reach, he examines the collision between history and contemporary life in &#8220;Civil Society,&#8221; &#8220;Left,&#8221; and &#8220;Revolution.&#8221; <br/><br/>And he poignantly addresses the experiences we all hold in common as he grapples with beauty, death, freedom, God, and sex. By turns provocative and intimate, partisan and universal, this book is a brilliant summation of an international literary career. Revisiting the influences, commitments, readings, and insights of a lifetime, Fuentes has fashioned a magnificently coherent statement of his view of the world, reminding us once again why reading Fuentes is &#8220;like standing beneath the dome of the Sistine Chapel. . . . The breadth and enormity of this accomplishment is breathtaking&#8221; (<em>The Denver Post</em>).<br/><br/><br/><em>From the Hardcover edition.</em>]]>

    <![CDATA[En 2007 ocurrio un acontecimiento literario muy pocas veces visto, la celebracion de un clasico vivo de la literatura universal, Gabriel Garcia Marquez. Habia motivo para ello: los 80 anos del narrador colombiano y los 40 anos de Cien anos de soledad; dos hechos que se celebraron con la edicio de un millon de ejemplares de la celebre novela y un homenje al creador de Macondo en el marco del IV Congreso Internacional de la Lengua Espanola, celebrado en Cartagena de Indias, Colombia. En bella edicion y en su coleccion Centzontle, el Fonde Cultura Economica recupera los discursos de Gabriel Gar cia Marquez y de Carlos Fuentes en torno a esta celebracion un hecho inolvidable, del cual el lector puede ser testigo pri vilegiado a traves de este libro . El Nobel de Literatura recuerda en estas paginas que ni en el mas delirante de sus suenos imagino que Cien ande soledad llegaria a ser leida por casi 50 millones de lectores, un numero tal de personas que si vivieran en un mismo pedazo de tierra seria uno de los 20 paises mas poblados del mundo. Testigo privilegiado de la edificacion de Macondo y de su transcurrir desde hace cuatro decadas, Fuentes evoca, como pocos, una historia que por si misma es ya otra novela. El libro incluye solamente los dos discursos. Pasta dura.]]>

    <![CDATA[This collection of essays by Carlos Fuentes, Mexican intellectual, man of letters, and erstwhile diplomat, seeks to place his country's current convulsive state in a wider historical perspective. He discusses the Mexican Revolution of 1910 as a liberating moment, counterbalanced by a tendency toward a centralized authoritarianism that created the monolithic ruling party, the Partido Revolucionario Institucional, or PRI. Fuentes considers that the PRI was a progressive force originally, but that it became corrupted by the Mexican ruling class' elevation of Anglo-American forms of government, and the application of &quot;savage capitalism&quot; to the detriment of the Mexican people. Fuentes also talks about recent events, including the assassination of his friend, Luis Donaldo Colosio, the PRI presidential candidate, and he includes an exchange with Subcommander Marcos, the Zapatista leader.]]>

    <![CDATA[This book brings together Carlos Fuentes' reflections on the North American and global political crisis developed under the George W. Bush administration. It compiles articles that the author has published in newspapers and magazines from around the world between August 2000 and July 2004, plus a never before published prologue and a final reflection. The articles go as far back as the vote-count conflict during the 2000 Gore/Bush elections until the current war in Iraq. In interviews, Fuentes has stated that he decided to publish this book in hopes of giving Latino voters a light into the country's situations.   <p>In these articles, Carlos Fuentes tries to make clear the need to recover an international, multilateral and reliable world order, with the purpose of trying to solve political conflicts by means of diplomatic negotiation and social conflicts by means of international solidarity. Terrorism does not only have religious fundamentalism as its origin, but also economic misery, political oppression, and the distorted perception, at times accurate, that the weak can take from the strong. It is the duty of the strong to promote constructive policies that eliminate centers of tensions, which is what attracts those unsatisfied and fanatic groups. This is the great problem of our time; George W. Bush has not contributed towards eliminating these tensions, but instead he has intensified it.</p>]]>

    <![CDATA[As Cain and Abel, two brothers confront each other for their father's lover, the most powerful man in the country. La voluntad y la fortuna is the great novel of Mexico s past and the present of a Narconation . An incredible and real story; Fuente s most awaited novel.    Caressed by the gentle nighttime waves of a beach in the Pacific Ocean, the severed head of Josue Nadal remembers, digresses and tells its story. It knows that in the course of that year, his is the thousandth. It also knows the country cannot offer half of its population jobs, food or education. It knows that is why crime reigns. As if that weren t enough, it also knows that evil is celebrated as the greater good, as the natural consequence of will and fortune.     Description in Spanish:  Como Cain y Abel, dos hermanos se enfrentan por la amante de su padre, el hombre mas poderoso del pais.    La voluntad y la fortuna es la gran novela del Mexico pasado y el presente de una Â«narconacionÂ», la de todas las civilizaciones y mitologias, la del siglo XX. El destino como voluntad disfrazada es el tema de este relato, una de la obras mayores de la gran literatura hispanoamericana.]]>

    <![CDATA[During the summer of 2007, the Palacio de Bellas Artes in Mexico City hosted the most complete exhibition ever of the work of Frida Kahlo. Marking the centenary of Kahlo's birth, the Palacio showed 354 works, including 64 oil paintings, both beloved and virtually unknown, 45 drawings, 11 watercolors, 5 etchings, plus scores of letters, photographs and other personal ephemera. It was a labor of love, as well as a loving gesture, for Mexico's greatest artistic ambassador. It was also timely; Kahlo is in the air again, as young contemporary artists revisit and recast psychoanalytic, neo-Surrealistic figuration.<br/>In 1953, when Frida Kahlo had her first solo exhibition in Mexico--the only one held in her native country during her lifetime--one critic wrote: &quot;It is impossible to separate the life and work of this extraordinary person. Her paintings are her biography.&quot; Kahlo herself puts it better: &quot;They thought I was a Surrealist, but I wasn't. I never painted dreams. I painted my own reality.&quot; This essential catalogue, based on the Palacio de Bellas Artes exhibition, presents brief essays by a wide range of Kahlo scholars, poets, anthropologists, architects, psychologists and experts in many other disciplines, both from Mexico and abroad--as well as a more extended appreciation of Kahlo by the novelist Carlos Fuentes, along with Kahlo's own paintings, drawings, prints and ephemera.]]>

    <![CDATA[''Our personality is made up of many facets we have, ourselves, forgotten.'' Carlos Fuentes  In this play a lady and her servant inhabit an abandoned house. Both are blind, yet each one believes that the other can see, that the other is their guardian, their guide. The lady expects protection from her servant, the servant from his lady. Both await in darkness the return of the lord of the house, gone six days before. The action takes place during the seventh-day vigil.    Description in Spanish:  ''Toque mi cuerpo y le dije que sentia verguenza, que mi cuerpo no era mas que un poco de tierra, de pena, de desolacion, de esclavitud.''    En esta obra teatral, Donata y su criado, el Duque, habitan una casa que parece colapsarse. Ambos son ciegos, pero cada uno cree que solo el lo esta y que el otro ve; cada uno cree que el otro es su guardian, su lazarillo, su propiedad. Ambos esperan el regreso del marido de Donata, quien ha fijado con severidad las reglas de conducta de su casa y luego abandono a los ciegos a las tentaciones de la libertad: convertirse en otro, librarse tanto de la indiferente ausencia como de la promiscua sospecha del senor.]]>

    <![CDATA[&lt;DIV&gt;&lt;DIV&gt;<em>Yankee Invasion</em> centers on one of the most traumatic periods of Mexican history: the 1847 invasion of Mexico City by American armed forces and the ultimate loss of almost half its territory to the United States. Abelardo, who as a young man witnessed the events, narrates the novel and in its very first pages commits an act of resistance that will haunt him the rest of his life. In his old age, he begins to reflect on the history of Mexico, as well as his complicated love affairs with both his fiancée and her mother, which play out against the tumultuous backdrop of the invasion and occupation. Told with humor and pathos, <em>Yankee Invasion</em> paints a riveting portrait of an event that, though little known in America, still reverberates in Mexico today. Vivid descriptions capture the streets, cafés, cantinas, and drawing rooms of 19th-century Mexico City.&lt;/DIV&gt;]]>

    <![CDATA[&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;One of Mexico&#8217;s most important modern artists, Juan Soriano (1920&#8211;2006) served as a link between the nationalist imagery of the Mexican muralists and the experimental vanguard of the 1950s and 1960s known as &#8220;La Ruptura.&#8221; This fascinating book, which examines the earliest period of Soriano&#8217;s career, is the first focused, critical study of him in English. <br/><br/> <br/><br/>Opening with texts on Soriano by the artist&#8217;s friends and colleagues Octavio Paz and Carlos Fuentes (appearing here for the first time in English), the book places Soriano&#8217;s work within the context of Mexican painting during this vibrant and transitional moment. In his essay, Edward Sullivan examines the parallels between paintings by Soriano and those of other modernists from Europe and the United States. He also analyzes the continuity within Soriano&#8217;s paintings of certain Mexican pictorial traditions while simultaneously emphasizing the importance of his conscious rejection of folkloric elements sometimes associated with Mexican modern art.<br/><br/> <br/><br/>&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;]]>

    <![CDATA[&lt;DIV&gt;&lt;DIV&gt;<em>Yankee Invasion</em> centers on one of the most traumatic periods of Mexican history: the 1847 invasion of Mexico City by American armed forces and the ultimate loss of almost half its territory to the United States. Abelardo, who as a young man witnessed the events, narrates the novel and in its very first pages commits an act of resistance that will haunt him the rest of his life. In his old age, he begins to reflect on the history of Mexico, as well as his complicated love affairs with both his fiancée and her mother, which play out against the tumultuous backdrop of the invasion and occupation. Told with humor and pathos, <em>Yankee Invasion</em> paints a riveting portrait of an event that, though little known in America, still reverberates in Mexico today. Vivid descriptions capture the streets, cafés, cantinas, and drawing rooms of 19th-century Mexico City.&lt;/DIV&gt;]]>
