Mexican High, Out Backward

Just got back from Michigan, where I read at Borders. I have a few good photos from the event I’ll put up in a day or so, along with mas noticias.

I love Ann Patchett’s essay about book tours in The Atlantic Monthly!

Journalist Melynda Fuller’s Q&A with me is in this month’s edition of Bookslut. Click the link to check it out!

I was a guest on July 1st’s Leonard Lopate show on WNYC…you can listen to the segment here. We discussed Mexican High, immigration, social class in Mexico, and meaning of the term “fresa.”
