When the "counter-canon" itself becomes canonized, it's time to reload. This is the notion that animates New Border Voices, an anthology of recent and rarely seen writing by Borderlands artists from El Paso to Brownsville-and a hundred miles on either side. Challenging the assumption that borderlands writing is the privileged product of the 1970s and '80s, the vibrant community represented in this collection offers tasty bits of regional fare that will appeal to a wide range of readers and students.
Among the contributions are:
Introduction
A "Southern Renaissance" for Texas Letters
-Jose E. Limon

The Texas-Mexico Border: This Writer's Sense of Place
-Rolando Hinojosa-Smith

The Rain Parade
-Paul Pedroza

Industry Reviews

"New Border Voices will no doubt spark animated exchanges on the state of Borderlands studies; as such, this text can be useful for scholars of western American literature and border literature as well as interdisciplinary studies."--Western American Literature--Western American Literature (03/01/2015)
"Successfully avoiding sentimentality and clich?, the authors represented in New Border Voices tackle tradition and assimilation, language, belonging, alienation, superstition, modernity, violence, justice, the land itself, and necessary compromise."--Concho River Review--Concho River Review (10/01/2014)
