A man waits to cross la linea, the U.S.-Mexico border, as a guard
scrutinizes him from behind dark sunglasses. Two grown brothers
living three thousand miles apart struggle to reconnect through the
static of a bad phone connection. A young mother trying to adjust
to small-town life in a new country tells her children about the
border city where she grew up-the dances and parties and cruises
along the boulevard. The stories in Santiago Vaquera-Vasquez's
intimate conversational narrative take readers around the world,
from the orchards of California to the cornfields of Iowa, from the
neighbourhoods of Madrid and Mexico City to the Asian shore of
Istanbul. As the characters navigate borders and border
crossings-both physical and psychological-they attempt to make
sense of their increasingly complex memories and relationships.
