Hecho en Tejas: An Anthology of Texas Mexican Literature

Dagoberto Gilb

This is the anthology we have dreamed of. From the writings of Cabeza de Vaca to Selena lyrics to Houston writers like poet Evangelina Vigil-Piñón to our own Professor Tony Diaz, El Librotraficante, to accounts of verteranos Sgt Hector Garcia and Master Sgt Roy Benevidez Jr, writer Dagoberto Gilb has compiled a work that places Texas at the Center of Mexican American Literature and Studies. It also features photographs and art. Professors, high school teachers, and community members can each find work that resonates and makes us proud. Of course, we are no ordinary bookstore. Meet the editor of this potent anthology, Chicano Icon Dagoberto Gilb, as NP brings him back to launch two new books of prose on Tuesday, Nov. 19, 2024. Get a signed copy for your family library.
