Books:

All of Anna Castillo's, and Carlos Fuentes' books, I'm still a fan of Sandra Cisneros, and though Caramello was fun, I was disappointed by her need to translate mexicanismos to english, she has a loyal following of bilingual/bicultural readers who love her work because it usually resonates loudly in them , why does she need monolinguals? Nothing against them, but they are not her audience, and there is nothing wrong with asking people to do their homework in order to understand something...just ranting... Of course I love Paz and Garcia Marquez, because all self respecting latinos should like them ( or at least know who they are), oh and Juan Rulfo. I also get a kick out of Michael moore, and chomsky. Finally, I'll never pass on a good issue of Cosmopolitan, and Elle magazines. Currently reading the life of Pi, I picked it up at the airport, so far I've been pleasantly surprised.

Heroes:

Sub-Comandante Marcos
