Reflections on A New Mexican Crypto-Jewish Song Book offers close
examinations of a manuscript written over a 20-year period by
Loggie Carrasco, a well-known crypto-Jew from Albuquerque, New
Mexico. The manuscript includes a wide range of genres: folklore,
memory, ritual practices, genealogy, and most significantly poetry
and songs. Although the manuscript remains unpublished, this book
utilizes quotations and excepts to enable the reader to have a good
understanding of Carrasco’s voice. Focusing on the main genres
and themes that shape Carrasco’s manuscripts, the contributors
argue that the work is both unique and illustrative of the vitality
of crypto-Jewish culture and contemporary understandings of it.
