"Moving from the intricate Tex-Mex-rootedness of Borderlands to the more spiritual, historical-mythical, liminal negotiation zone of Light in the Darkness, Anzalda continues her examination of in-between spaces. Her concept of nepantla enables multiple thematic and stylistic lines to intersect, defining possible spaces of cultural transformation." , The publication of Gloría Anzaldúa's Light in the Dark/ Luz en lo oscuro: Rewriting Identity, Spirituality, Reality eleven years after her death in 2004 is a highly anticipated--and enormously important--event in feminist scholarship, one that takes both philosophy and activism in new directions. The manuscript... makes significant philosophical contributions to feminism, epistemology, aesthetics, ontology, critical philosophy of race, and social and political thought at the same time that it calls into question how we conceive of and organize these areas of study to begin with., "[T]he publication of a new book of [Anzaldua's] writing provides a glorious new opportunity to revel in her brilliant mind.... In our contemporary world of intense binary thinking and wall building, Gloria Anzaldúa's insights provide an inspiring way forward." , Gloria E. Anzaldua is one of the most generative and generous thinkers and story tellers in our times. In these rich auto-ethnographies she continues to search for what she calls the 'positive shadows' of personal and collective experience, spirit, and world. Anzaldua has the courage to write inside recesses and crevices to encounter what one does not necessarily want to know, but needs nonetheless to inhabit, tuned to change and possibility. In her unique speaking in entwined tongues, in Spanish and English, she is a multimodal guide in our hard times to 'active imagining' for worlds that may yet be. It is such a pleasure to see these stories gathered at last; they make her legacy vivid when it is most needed., Gloria E.

It is such a pleasure to see this book at last; they make her legacy vivid when it is most needed., Perhaps the book's greatest strength is Keating's vast editorial knowledge.... Under Keating's care, Light in the Dark continues Anzalda's metaphysical philosophies, reiterating, expanding, and inspiring consciousness building and setting innovative directions for future Chicana/o studies.... The text offers a new way of decolonizing the mind, transforming the world, and reaching out into the universe., Light in the Dark is not only a previously missing piece of Anzalda's oeuvre, important to the growing field of scholarship on Anzalda, but also a text that speaks broadly across disciplines and will surely influence scholarship in women's studies, philosophy, politics, Chicana/o and Latina/o studies, border studies, native studies, sexuality studies and beyond., Gloria E.

Scholars invested in intellectual praxis will find a powerful guide to social justice inquiry within this publication., "[T]he publication of a new book of [Anzaldua's] writing provides a glorious new opportunity to revel in her brilliant mind.... In our contemporary world of intense binary thinking and wall building, Gloria Anzalda's insights provide an inspiring way forward." , This text would serve as an excellent book in a literature course, and could be used as the capstone of Anzalda's other writings. Keating has done an excellent job of editing this piece--she has made it easy to forget that the work was published after Anzalda's death., Gloria E.

A pleasant overall experience! They had a rather hard-to-find book on Persian calligraphy for a good price and free shipping. The status said shipped before any tracking was uploaded so I messaged them the next day to ask them to provide a tracking number. They never responded, but tracking was added to my eBay details that night. It took about five days to get here to Los Angeles from LaVergne, Tennessee and came in a strong, secure envelope. The book was in good condition and as described.
