The young protagonists fall in love but face struggles with race, class, gender, and sexual contradictions.This work, long lost in a collection of private paper and unavailable until now, serves as a literary enthnography of South TexasMexican folklore customs and traditions as well as a feminist critque of rigid patriarchal culture.With an introduction by Jos E.
