In this collection of short stories by noted film director and writer Jesus Trevino, the author gives us an off-beat, magically real and at times raucous vision of life in the barrios of Arroyo Grande, Texas. The rich texture of the narrative and the rich diversity of Hispanic characters all come to a romping, feverish end in the book with a fantasy that features an army of movie stereotypes of Hispanics who have returned as zombies bent on avenging themselves on Hollywood directors and screenwriters.
