wonderful trilingual collection of Kumeyaay Texts / Kumiai Textos
is a delight for all concerned with Indigenous oral
literature. Traditional stories such as these were
told within families to instruct and entertain and
this collection now makes them available to heritage
language communities on both sides of the border as
well as to students of verbal art and the oral
tradition. In a rapidly transforming world, it is
especially important to document and preserve these
fascinating stories, so that they can continue to
serve as resources for community identity and
nation-building for these groups, and as subjects of
scholarly research."

Language:
Ideologies, Polities, and Identities, Anthropology, UCLA  "This
is an exceptional work, giving us a glimpse of the
voices, the artistry, of five Kumeyaay narrators in
Kumeyaay with translations into Spanish and English
making these voices available for future generations
of Kumeyaay. The importance of this book will be
felt for years to come."

Advance critical raves! The US comic’s scene is evolving—along with the rest of the culture—slowly, sometimes painfully, but inexorably towards a greater diversity of readers & creators, of new styles & stories. This book gives us a series of intimate conversations with several generations of Latin@ cartoonists (diverse themselves in their backgrounds and interests) juggling craft and art with heritage and language. These pioneers have their noses to their drawing boards and tablets but they keep their eyes on the larger significance of their work. —Matt Madden, author of 99 Ways to Tell a Story: Exercises in Style In this timely and transformative collection of interviews, Aldama brings to life the stories, achievements, and creative process of 29 Latino—and Latina!—comic book artists. Jettisoned to new heights of exploration, this vertiginous journey opens us to a world of breathtaking visual-verbal creativity and the embrace of a resplendently diverse and eager community of readers. —Jan Baetens, University of Leuven, co-author recently of The Graphic Novel: An Introduction Aldama stretches open a new space of critical thinking about Latinidad and comics in the 21st century. As a living lightning rod, Aldama captures then spins out anew psionic thunderbolts of intellectual and creative insight offered by today’s Latino comic book storytellers. —Ana Merino, The University of Iowa and author of Chris Ware: La secuencia circular and El cómic hispánico  Save on fees!
