¿Qué sucede cuando una mujer de apetitos y deseos indecorosos como Joan quiere más? La historia de una amistad tan obsesiva, apasionada y devoradora como algunas historias de amor. Las buenas amigas no solo es una disección tan excitante como memorable de los círculos en que se mueven los ricos, bellos y famosos, sino la historia de una amistad tan obsesiva, apasionada y devoradora como algunas historias de amor. Joan Fortier es el paradigma del glamour tejano y el centro de la escena social del Houston de los años cincuenta. Alta, rubia, bella y enérgica, destaca en los salones y su nombre está en boca de todos. Los hombres la desean y las mujeresquieren ser ella; sin embargo, ese mundo opulento, con sus clubes de campo y sus bailes de presentación en sociedad, tiene reglas estrictas. El dinero fluye tan libremente como el petróleo, pero la libertad y el poder son patrimonio de los hombres. ¿Qué sucede cuando una mujer de apetitos y deseos indecorosos como Joan quiere más? Cece Buchanan, amiga de Joan desde la infancia, vive pendiente de ella, alternando entre la crítica y la complicidad. Cuando la conducta de Joan se radicaliza, Cece se ve enfrentada a difíciles decisiones. La crítica ha dicho... «DiSclafani es una maestra a la hora de crear suspense y de revelar mundos privados mediante detalles inesperados y elocuentes.»-The New York Times «Las buenas amigas resplandece como los enormes diamantes que lucen sus personajes.»-People «Las buenas amigas explora el deseo femenino que amenaza el statu quo.»-The Washington Post «Un poco de Mad Men, un poco de Carol y mucho erotismo.»-Tampa Bay Times «La historia nos sumerge en una época y un lugar deslumbrantes y algo decadentes.»-The Houston Chronicle «Esta excitante lectura se disfruta con la misma facilidad que un daiquiri.»-Cosmopolitan"

In Island Bodies, Rosamond King examines sexualities, violence, and repression in the Caribbean experience. She analyzes the sexual norms and expectations portrayed in Caribbean and diaspora literature, music, film, and popular culture to show how many individuals contest traditional roles by maneuvering within and/or trying to change their society’s binary gender systems. She skillfully argues and demonstrates that these transgressions better represent Caribbean culture than the “official” representations perpetuated by governmental elites and often codified into laws that reinforce patriarchal, heterosexual stereotypes. Unique in its breadth and its multilingual and multidisciplinary approach, Island Bodies addresses homosexuality, interracial relations, transgender people, and women’s sexual agency in Dutch, Francophone, Anglophone, and Hispanophone works of Caribbean literature. Additionally, King explores the paradoxical nature of sexuality across the region: discussing sexuality in public is often considered taboo, yet the tourism economy trades on portraying Caribbean residents as hypersexualized. Ultimately King reveals that despite the varied national specificity, differing colonial legacies, and linguistic diversity across the islands, there are striking similarities in the ways Caribglobal cultures attempt to restrict sexuality and in the ways individuals explore and transgress those boundaries.

Latinos are now the largest so-called minority group in the United States—the result of a growth trend that began in the mid-twentieth century—and the influence of Latin cultures on American life is reflected in everything from politics to education to mass cultural forms such as music and television. Yet very few volumes have attempted to analyze or provide a context for this dramatic historical development. The Columbia History of Latinos in the United States Since 1960 is among the few comprehensive histories of Latinos in America. This collaborative, interdisciplinary volume provides not only cutting-edge interpretations of recent Latino history, including essays on the six major immigrant groups (Mexicans, Cubans, Puerto Ricans, Dominicans, Central Americans, and South Americans), but also insight into the major areas of contention and debate that characterize Latino scholarship in the early twenty-first century. This much-needed book offers a broad overview of this era of explosive demographic and cultural change by exploring the recent histories of all the major national and regional Latino subpopulations and reflecting on what these historical trends might mean for the future of both the United States and the other increasingly connected nations of the Western Hemisphere. While at one point it may have been considered feasible to explore the histories of national populations in isolation from one another, all of the contributors to this volume highlight the deep transnational ties and interconnections that bind different peoples across national and regional lines. Thus, each chapter on Latino national subpopulations explores the ambiguous and shifting boundaries that so loosely define them both in the United States and in their countries of origin. A multinational perspective on important political and cultural themes—such as Latino gender systems, religion, politics, expressive and artistic cultures, and interactions with the law—helps shape a realistic interpretation of the Latino experience in the United States.
