During the past 50 years, the US-Mexico border has established itself as one of the fastest growing regions of the Western Hemisphere. On the Mexican side of the 2000-mile border, we have witnessed rapid growth fueled by the maquiladora industry and the movement of people from central and southern Mexico as a stepping-stone to crossing into the United States in search of employment. There is little doubt that for both the US and Mexico, the border region will become even more critical to cultural understanding and cooperation as well as to the exchange of goods and services. It is in this context that this book makes an important contribution. Independently, but more so collaboratively, the poems and photographs in this book help us to both better understand and appreciate life along this long and complicated border.Giving Gaze: An Intimate Topography of the Border, with ISBN 9781930785229 and ISBN 1930785224.
