La Bloga: Review: Telling Tongues. A Latinarroba Anthology on Language Experience.
Tagged: blog, Chicano, teacherPosted on: August 28th, 2007“A powerful feeling of deja vu sweeps over me while leafing through the pages of Telling Tongues, a poetry/prose anthology about English Spanish speech, published in 2007 by Calaca Press and Red Salmon Press.
The editors take pains to collect accessible material on issues that swirl around the role a triad of languages–Spanish, English, Code-switching– play in the Chicana Chicano community. The present volume may indeed be the first published “vulgate,” i.e. not academic, collection on Chicano linguistics. It’s a worthwhile assemblage that should go onto the resource shelf of any school teacher.”
