Del autor de Aura, La Silla del Águila, La región más transparente, La muerte de Artemio Cruz. Carlos Fuentes ganó el Premio Príncipe de Asturias 1994, el Premio Cervantes 1987, el Premio Internacional Grinzane Cavour 1994, entre otras distinciones. Las culturas se fosilizan si están aisladas, pero nacen o renacen en el contacto con otros hombres y mujeres, los hombres y mujeres de otra cultura, otro credo, otra raza. Si no reconocemos nuestra humanidad en los demás, nunca la reconoceremos en nosotros mismos. De los espejos de obsidiana enterrados en la urbe totonaca de El Tajín a los espejos ibéricos de Cervantes y Velázquez, el de la locura y el del asombro, un intercambio de reflejos culturales ha ido y venido de una a otra orilla del Atlántico a lo largo de más de quince años; este ensayo cuenta esa historia, la nuestra. Sólo nos vemos enteros en el espejo desenterrado de la identidad cuando aparecemos acompañados del otro; entonces somos por fin capaces de mirar de cerca las consecuencias de nuestras acciones y convertir la experiencia en conocimiento. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION In this essay, the great Mexican author Carlos Fuentes analyzes the search for Latin American identity. From the author of Aura, The Eagle’s Throne, Where the Air Is Clear, The Death of Artemio Cruz. Carlos Fuentes won the 1994 Prince of Asturias Prize, the 1987 Cervantes Prize, the 1994 Grinzane Cavour International Prize, and many other distinctions. Cultures fossilize if they are isolated, but they are born or reborn upon contact with other men and women: men and women of another culture, another creed, another race. If we don’t recognize our humanity in others, we will never recognize it in ourselves. From the obsidian mirrors buried in the Totonac city of El Tajín to the Iberian mirrors of Cervantes and Velázquez; that of insanity and that of amazement; an exchange of cultural reflections has come and gone from one shore of the Atlantic to the other throughout more than fifteen years. This essay tells the story. We only see ourselves completely in the unearthed mirror of identity when we appear alongside another; then we are finally capable of examining the consequences of our actions and converting the experience into knowledge.

_______________________ A DRAMATIC FICTIONAL PORTRAIT OF THE US-MEXICO BORDER, MIGRATION, AND ITS IMPACT ON PEOPLE'S LIVES _______________________ Through this network of nine personal stories, Carlos Fuentes sets out to explain Mexico and America to each other – and to the rest of the world. He presents a dramatic fictional portrait of the relationship between the United States and Mexico, as played out in a Mexican dynasty led by a powerful Mexican oligarch with complex ties north of the border. It is the story of Mexican families who send their sons north to provide for whole villages with dollars and of Mexican tycoons who exploit their own people. Young Jose Francisco grows up in Texas, determined to write about the border world – the immigrants and illegals, Mexican poverty and Yankee prosperity – stories to break the stand-off silence with a victory shout, to shatter at last the crystal frontier.
