| 520 | 8 | |a Annotation |b <div>This is a rarity in contemporary writing, a truly bilingual enterprise, as in Susana Chvez-Silvermans previous memoir,<i>Killer Crnicas</i>. Chvez-Silverman switches between English and Spanish, creating alinguistic<i>mestizaje</i>that is still a surprise encounter in the world of letters today, and the author forms one of a small but growing band of writers to embrace bilingualism as a literary force. Also like<i>Killer Crnicas</i>, each chapter in<i>Scenes from la Cuenca de Los Angeles</i>is a crnica, a vignette that began as intimate diary entries and e-mails and letters to lovers, friends, and ghosts from the past. These episodic chapters follow the Chvez-Silvermans personal history, from California to South Africa and Australia and back, from unfathomable loss to deeply felt joy. Readers drawn into this witty book will confront their own conceptions of boundaries, borders, languages, memories, and spaces.</div><div> </div><div>Honorable Mention, Best Biography in Spanish or Bilingual, International Latino Book Awards</div> | |

Also like<i>Killer Crnicas</i>, each chapter in<i>Scenes from la Cuenca de Los Angeles</i>is a crnica, a vignette that began as intimate diary entries and e-mails and letters to lovers, friends, and ghosts from the past. These episodic chapters follow the Chvez-Silvermans personal history, from California to South Africa and Australia and back, from unfathomable loss to deeply felt joy. Readers drawn into this witty book will confront their own conceptions of boundaries, borders, languages, memories, and spaces.</div><div> </div><div>Honorable Mention, Best Biography in Spanish or Bilingual, International Latino Book Awards</div></subfield></datafield><datafield tag="600" ind1="1" ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Chávez-Silverman, Susana.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n97001715</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="600" ind1="1" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Chávez-Silverman, Susana</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Latin Americans</subfield><subfield code="z">United States</subfield><subfield code="v">Biography.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Latino-Américains</subfield><subfield code="z">États-Unis</subfield><subfield code="v">Biographies.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">BIOGRAPHY & AUTOBIOGRAPHY</subfield><subfield code="x">Historical.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">HISTORY</subfield><subfield code="x">State & Local</subfield><subfield code="x">General.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Latin Americans</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="651" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">United States</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PBJtxgQXMWqmjMjjwXRHgrq</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="655" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Biographies</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="758" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="i">has work:</subfield><subfield code="a">Scenes from la Cuenca de Los Angeles y otros natural disasters (Text)</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PCH3DBRfRjfQ4qkTMhWpRYX</subfield><subfield code="4">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/ontology/hasWork</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="776" ind1="0" ind2="8"><subfield code="i">Print version:</subfield><subfield code="a">Chávez-Silverman, Susana.</subfield><subfield code="t">Scenes from la Cuenca de Los Angeles y otros natural disasters.</subfield><subfield code="d">Madison, Wis. : University of Wisconsin Press, ©2010</subfield><subfield code="z">9780299235246</subfield><subfield code="w">(DLC) 2009040632</subfield><subfield code="w">(OCoLC)454375202</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="830" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Writing in Latinidad.</subfield><subfield code="0">http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n2004039747</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="856" ind1="4" ind2="0"><subfield code="l">FWS01</subfield><subfield code="p">ZDB-4-EBA</subfield><subfield code="q">FWS_PDA_EBA</subfield><subfield code="u">https://search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site&db=nlebk&AN=307548</subfield><subfield code="3">Volltext</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Coutts Information Services</subfield><subfield code="b">COUT</subfield><subfield code="n">13256065</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">EBL - Ebook Library</subfield><subfield code="b">EBLB</subfield><subfield code="n">EBL3444986</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">ebrary</subfield><subfield code="b">EBRY</subfield><subfield code="n">ebr10375885</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">EBSCOhost</subfield><subfield code="b">EBSC</subfield><subfield code="n">307548</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">ProQuest MyiLibrary Digital eBook Collection</subfield><subfield code="b">IDEB</subfield><subfield code="n">255526</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Project MUSE</subfield><subfield code="b">MUSE</subfield><subfield code="n">muse12017</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="938" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">YBP Library Services</subfield><subfield code="b">YANK</subfield><subfield code="n">3205928</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="994" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">92</subfield><subfield code="b">GEBAY</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="912" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">ZDB-4-EBA</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="049" ind1=" " ind2=" "><subfield code="a">DE-863</subfield></datafield></record></collection> |

Madison, Wis. : University of Wisconsin Press, ©2010. 1 online resource (xvi, 159 pages) text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier Writing in Latinidad Written in a combination of English and Spanish. Print version record. Annotation <div>This is a rarity in contemporary writing, a truly bilingual enterprise, as in Susana Chvez-Silvermans previous memoir,<i>Killer Crnicas</i>. Chvez-Silverman switches between English and Spanish, creating alinguistic<i>mestizaje</i>that is still a surprise encounter in the world of letters today, and the author forms one of a small but growing band of writers to embrace bilingualism as a literary force. Also like<i>Killer Crnicas</i>, each chapter in<i>Scenes from la Cuenca de Los Angeles</i>is a crnica, a vignette that began as intimate diary entries and e-mails and letters to lovers, friends, and ghosts from the past. These episodic chapters follow the Chvez-Silvermans personal history, from California to South Africa and Australia and back, from unfathomable loss to deeply felt joy. Readers drawn into this witty book will confront their own conceptions of boundaries, borders, languages, memories, and spaces.</div><div> </div><div>Honorable Mention, Best Biography in Spanish or Bilingual, International Latino Book Awards</div> Chávez-Silverman, Susana fast Latin Americans United States Biography.
