The Harvest
is the gathering of the complete short fiction of the late Tomas
Rivera, the celebrated Chicano author of the classic...y no
se lo trago la tierra/...and the earth did not devour
him. Framed within the Odyssean cycle of the migratory
farmworkers, Rivera's stories are myths and parables which
relate the universal themes of alienation, love and betrayal, man and
nature, death and resurrection, and the search for community.
Represented in laconic and poetic prose, Rivera's characters become
indelibly inscribed on the multi-cultural fabric of American literature.
