Product Information
NAMED A TOP 10 BOOK OF 2018 BY NPR and THE WASHINGTON POST WINNER OF THE LOS ANGELES TIMES BOOK PRIZE IN CURRENT INTEREST FINALIST FOR THE NATIONAL BOOK CRITICS CIRCLE NONFICTION AWARD The instant New York Times bestseller, "A must-read for anyone who thinks 'build a wall' is the answer to anything." --Esquire For Francisco Cant , the border is in the blood: his mother, a park ranger and daughter of a Mexican immigrant, raised him in the scrublands of the Southwest. Driven to understand the hard realities of the landscape he loves, Cant joins the Border Patrol. He and his partners learn to track other humans under blistering sun and through frigid nights. They haul in the dead and deliver to detention those they find alive. Plagued by a growing awareness of his complicity in a dehumanizing enterprise, he abandons the Patrol for civilian life. But when an immigrant friend travels to Mexico to visit his dying mother and does not return, Cant discovers that the border has migrated with him, and now he must know the full extent of the violence it wreaks, on both sides of the line.

Reviews
"A must-read for anyone who thinks "build a wall" is the answer to anything." --Esquire "Fresh, urgent...A devastating narrative of the very real human effects of depersonalized policy." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred) "Cant's rich prose and deep empathy make this an indispensable look at one of America's most divisive issues." -- Publisher's Weekly (starred) "There is a line dividing what we know and do not know. Some see the world from one shore and some from the other. Cant brings the two together to a spiritual whole. My gratitude for this work of the soul." -- Sandra Cisneros "A beautiful, fiercely honest, and nevertheless deeply empathetic look at those who police the border and the migrants who risk - and lose -- their lives crossing it. In a time of often ill-informed or downright deceitful political rhetoric, this book is an invaluable corrective." -- Phil Klay, author of Redeployment "Francisco Cantu's story is a lyrical journey that helps bridge the jagged line that divides us from them. His empathy reminds us of our humanity -- our immigrant history -- at a critical time." -- Alfredo Corchado, journalist, author of Midnight in Mexico "Cant's story, and intelligent and humane perspective, should mortify anyone who ever thought building a wall might improve our lot. He advocates for clarity and compassion in place of xenophobia and uninformed rhetoric. His words are emotionally true and his literary sensibility uplifting." - Barry Lopez, author of Arctic Dreams and Of Wolves and Men "This book tells the hard poetry of the desert heart. If you think you know about immigration and the border, you will see there is much to learn. And you will be moved by its unexpected music." - Luis Alberto Urrea, author of The Devil's Highway, "Cant's story, and intelligent and humane perspective, should mortify anyone who ever thought building a wall might improve our lot. He advocates for clarity and compassion in place of xenophobia and uninformed rhetoric.

If you think you know about immigration and the border, you will see there is much to learn. And you will be moved by its unexpected music." - Luis Alberto Urrea, author of The Devil's Highway, "In a courageous endeavor to comprehend the complex issues that characterize America's border with Mexico, Francisco Cant joined the US Border Patrol. His story, and intelligent and humane perspective, should mortify anyone who ever thought building a wall might improve our lot. His words are emotionally true and his literary sensibility uplifting. The bilingual Mr. Cant advocates here for clarity and compassion in place of xenophobia and uninformed rhetoric."--Barry Lopez, "There is a line dividing what we know and do not know.

- 1***i (3)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaGord is very responsive, and I would 100% recommend. I ordered a magazine, and it was packaged very carefully, with cardboard backing to ensure it's safe during shipping, and arrived quickly. Magazine was exactly as described, and in good condition, and a much better deal than other sellers. Gord was very flexible, given that I was shipping to a country initially not listed. Thank you!Respuesta de gpickles04- Votos a los que ha respondido el vendedor gpickles04.- Votos a los que ha respondido el vendedor gpickles04.Thank you so much for the very positive feedback, Yalin.
