Where the Ox Does Not Plow : A Mexican American Ballad Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Where the Ox Does Not Plow, an autobiographical ethnography, consists of twenty-six life episodes that chronicle Manuel Peña's transformative journey from an impoverished migrant worker to a career in academia.

Inspired by his experiences and those of the people around him in Texas and California, Peña reflects on a wide range of issues arising from the historically-marginalized condition of Mexicans and other Latinos in the United States.

The narrative will engage readers with a broad range of human experiences, from race relations and economic exploitation to the intimacy of familial and romantic love.
