really liked it

For the mid-80s thinking and theory about the intersection of culture, race, and feminism--this book is radical. A bible to understanding what it means to live in a borderland... a fast read, engaging, but VERY thought provoking. the form mixes, Spanish/Chicanoism, poetry, prose, theory, academia, and the essay- Anzaldua continually disrupts you and the text, always evolving the question of identity.
