The Chicano characters in Richard Yanez's debut story collection live in El Paso's Lower Valley but inhabit a number of borders between two countries, two languages, and two cultures, between childhood and manhood, life and death. The teenaged narrator of 'Desert Vista' copes with a new school and a first love while negotiating the boundaries between his family's tenuous middleclass status and the workingclass community in which they have come to live. Tony Amoroza, the protagonist of 'Amoroza Tires,' wrestles with the overwhelming grief from his wife's death until an unexpected legacy prompts him with new faith. Maria del Valle, 'La Loquita,' the central character of 'Lucero's Mkt.,' crosses the border into madness while her neighbors watch, gossip, and try to offer or refuse aid.
