        New Mexican Chiles
        April 2018

        New Mexican Chiles

        by Dave DeWitt

        As the foods and recipes of Mexico have blended over the years into New Mexico's own distinctive cuisine, the chile pepper has become its defining element and single most important ingredient. Though many types were initially cultivated there, the long green variety that turned red in the fall adapted so well to the local soil and climate that it has now become the official state vegetable.To help chefs and diners get the most from this unique chile's great taste–without an overpowering pungency–Dave DeWitt, the noted Pope of Peppers, has compiled a complete guide to growing, harvesting, preserving and much more–topped off with dozens of delicious recipes for dishes, courses, and meals of every kind.

        Photography and memory in Mexico

        Icons of Revolution

        by Andrea Noble

        Photography and memory in Mexico traces the 'life stories' of some of the famous photographic images made during the 1910 revolution, which have been repeatedly reproduced across a range of media in its aftermath. Which photographs have become icons of the revolution and why these particular images and not others? What is the relationship between photography and memory of the conflict? How do we construct a critical framework for addressing the issues raised by iconic photographs? Placing an emphasis on the life, afterlife and also the pre-life of those iconic photographs that haunt the post-revolutionary landscape, Andrea Noble approaches them as dynamic objects, where their rhetorical power is derived from a combination of their visual eloquence and their ability to coordinate patterns of identification with the memory of the revolution as a foundational event in Mexican history. Richly-illustrated, this book will be of interest to all those interested in photography, memory studies, and Mexican cultural history. ;

        The Lake of Fire

        by Donald Willerton

        Mogi Franklin and his sister Jennifer are delighted to be attending a high school science conference in New Mexico amidst a hundred thousand acres of meadows, mountains, rivers, and volcanoes far older than recorded time. But their focus quickly changes when they learn of the disappearance fifty years ago of a plane with two hundred pounds of plutonium–and of the terrorist nations vying today to find it in those same mountains.Soon, they are engulfed in a complex web of Russian spies, government lies and deceit, an old box full of clues, and the real possibility that the shipment bound decades ago for nearby Los Alamos national laboratory is indeed hidden tantalizingly close to their conference center.Puzzling over the mystery, Mogi sets out with some friends on a backpacking trip to a remote lake. Too late they realize their mistake, as a minor forest fire suddenly explodes into the most dangerous blaze in the state's history, trapping Mogi and the others right in its path. They're fighting for their lives in this fifth book of the Mogi Franklin Mysteries, and if he's going to come up with a way out, he'd better do it fast!

        War Train

        by Donald Willerton

        To Mogi Franklin, it simply seemed like a better summer job than stocking supermarket shelves in Bluff, Utah. But the opportunity to help with his sister Jennifer's architectural assessment of the newly refurbished, once-grand-and-glorious hotel and restaurant in Las Vegas, New Mexico, turned out to be much more―the kind of brain-testing mystery he loved and excelled at, along with a heavy serving of adventure and danger.The mystery was more than seventy-five years old: the robbery of a local bank by two gunmen who'd walked out the door with thick stacks of hundred-dollar bills and then simply vanished. The link with the present-day hotel suddenly appeared in an unexpected find hidden in the “ton of junk” from an unknown attic room uncovered during the building's reconstruction. There among the old clothes, books, papers, and other remnants from the early days of World War II, Mogi finds a clue, then another and then more, leading far back in the hotel's unique history.As articles in a sensationalistic local newspaper seem to tie the clues together―and lead as well to false trails and blind alleys―Mogi digs deeper into the fascinating history of the Castañeda Hotel and its storied Harvey House restaurant to unravel the untold tale linking the robbery to a mother's love for the twin sons she was never able to give enough to.

        Aura

        By Carlos Fuentes

        by Mike Thompson, Peter Standish

        Since its publication in 1962, Carlos Fuentes' novel, Aura, remains not merely an object of academic interest but a continuous source of controversy in Mexico. It was the explosive combination of sex and religion that incensed the Ministro de Hacienda, Salvador Abascal, and linked Aura to the recent polemical Mexican film El crimen del Padre Amaro. Aura is preoccupied with the place and persistence of the sacred in modern Mexico rather than simply the secret abuses of institutional Catholicism. This critical edition of the work is accompanied by an introduction and notes on the text. ;

        River of Gold

        by Donald Willerton

        Two teens, one huge monk, and a stash of stolen gold―that's all that stand in the way of a powerful corporation getting its hands on a peaceful river valley in rural New Mexico. Mogi Franklin and his sister, Jennifer, uncover clues to a century-old mystery, but unraveling a botched robbery isn't enough when a whole river, and a way of life, are at stake. Can fourteen-year-old Mogi expose the truth―and save the valley before it's too late?

        Perlas de araña (Spider pearls)

        by Valentina Winocur

        Nona and Catalina, grandmother and granddaughter, have to flee to Mexico because of the Argentine dictatorship. The two land in a new place where they will have to reconfigure themselves in many ways. To begin with, as happens in exile, families are reorganized in unique sizes and structures. Catalina is just a child, she understands it at her own pace. Her seemingly innocent gaze observes a Chilean city that opens into a country with a life of its own. La Nona, who wields a singular wisdom, is an identity star. Questions about history and the present, arrive in time. Mexico and Argentina are distant countries on the map, but space-time merges them in a notion made of pain but also a lot of love, the argenmex, which throbs and has taken root in the south and north of the continent. This book does not stop there, but develops, reaching other geographies as well. As if it were a spider's web, it is carefully woven, captures and, above all, crosses threads of multiple meanings, from the historical, political and national, to those of childhood, the family and the individual.

        Nombres propios (Proper nouns)

        by Mercedes Alvarado

        In the face of uncertainty, we have lost the right to mourn; in the face of this, perhaps all that remains is to search, to ask, to name. This is a book that puts memory in the foreground, a recognition of the collective mourning that runs through us. Nombres propios is an approach to the legitimate and loving resistance that sustains the living victims of violence in Mexico. As Natalia Mendoza notes in the prologue: Alvarado's verses point to the concrete mechanism that could inaugurate a new time.

        Querido Diego, Te abraza Quiela by Elena Poniatowska

        by Elena Poniatowska

        by Nathanial Gardner

        One of the threads that runs through Elena Poniatowska's oeuvre is that of foreigners who have fallen in love with Mexico and its people. This is certainly the case of Querido Diego, te abraza Quiela - a brief novel (so short it was originally published in its entirety in Octavio Paz's literary magazine Vuelta). The Russian exile and painter Angelina Beloff writes from the cold and impoverished post-war Paris to Diego Rivera, her spouse of over ten years. Beloff sends these letters to which there is no response during a time when the emancipation of women has broken many of the standard models and the protagonist struggles to fashion her own. Elena Poniatowska has (re)created these letters and within them one finds the unforgettable testimony of an artist and her lover during the valuable crossroads of a new time when Diego Rivera was forging a new life in his native country. In this edition, Nathanial Gardner comments on the truth and fiction Poniatowska has woven together to form this compact, yet rich, modern classic. Using archives in London, Paris and Mexico City (including Angelina's correspondence held in Frida Kahlo's own home) as well as interviews from the final remaining characters who knew the real Angelina, Gardner offers a mediation of the text and its historical groundings as well as critical commentary. This edition will appeal to both students and scholars of Latin American Studies as well as lovers of Mexican Literature and Art in general.

        Little People, Big Dreams. Deutsche Ausgabe | Kinderbuch ab 4 Jahre

        by María Isabel Sánchez Vegara, Erica Salcedo, Svenja Becker

        In der Schule interessierte sich Georgia nicht für die Zahlen an der Tafel, sondern für die Farben der Natur draußen vor dem Fenster. Mit dem Skizzenblock in der Hand lief das Mädchen über den Bauernhof seiner Eltern. Ihre riesigen Blumenbilder feiern die Natur. Georgia malte aber auch die karge Wüstenlandschaft von New Mexico, Steine und Knochen, die sie dort fand. Das gefiel damals nicht allen. Heute ist sie einer der erfolgreichsten Künstlerinnen ihrer Zeit. Little People, Big Dreams erzählt von den beeindruckenden Lebensgeschichten großer Menschen: Jede dieser Persönlichkeiten, ob Philosophin, Forscherin oder Sportler, hat Unvorstellbares erreicht. Dabei begann alles, als sie noch klein waren: mit großen Träumen.
