This is simply one I go back to often and read sections of. Paz writes with a poignant subjectivity that is both sensitive and deeply observant. The contrast he illustrates between north and south, American and Mexico is thrilling, and makes me rankle over why I cannot be everywhere and everyone at once, so as to know the joys of each culture and not be bound to the limits of one.
