The
Harvest/La cosecha is the gathering of the
complete short fiction of the late Tomás Rivera, the celebrated Chicano
author of the classic . . . y no se lo tragó 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. |
