Rites and Witnesses
註釋Rolando Hinojosa, winner of the National Award for Chicano Literature (Quinto Solæ1972), the International Award for Best Spanish American Novel (Casa de las Am?ricasæ1976), is considered to be the foremost Chicano novelist. A master of satire, humor and understatement, Hinojosa has nurtured his characters through generations in the history of his fictional Rio Grande Valley town, Klail City. InæRites and Witnesses, the drama unfolds among the wealthy power-brokers whose manipulation of banking, ranching, real estate and local politics shapes the lives of real and down-to-earth inhabitants, all deftly and sensitively sketched by Hinojosa.
