Book Description
This bilingual collection of four of Diana Raznovich's plays, Disconcerted, Inner Gardens, MaTrix Inc, and Rear Entry amply demonstrates the role of humor in dealing with a broad range of issues: relationships, sexuality, stereotypes, censorship, and the consumer society in which emotions are bought and sold.

Book Description
Un mundo adornado nos rodea, espacios sin descubrir quedan aun en aquellos rincones que solo por poca atención están alejados por un momento, aunque siempre esperándonos, incluso en casa.Mientras mas ideas nuevas llenan nuestro pensar , entonces menor es el tiempo para atenderles.Que decir de esos dialogos entre calles, kioskos, pasajes, durante la caminata, el recreo, trabajo y compras... nos sorprende los pensamientos... esos cantos que dicen; "entonces, aquí estamos"...Existen dichos, ideas, se oyen y dicen, se cantan y gritan... se comunican y otros se guardan... este trabajo es aquel que se guardó por un tiempo, pero ahora se muestra para ser compartido...Un dialogo simple y directo, sano y reflexivo... aun se cantan, pero que hoy por hoy está en esos rincones que pocos se atreven a tocar...MGC

Book Description
The Other/Argentina looks at literature, film, and the visual arts to examine the threads of Jewishness that create patterns of meaning within the fabric of Argentine self-representation. A multiethnic yet deeply Roman Catholic country, Argentina has worked mightily to fashion itself as a modern nation. In so doing, it has grappled with the paradox of Jewishness, emblematic both of modernity and of the lingering traces of the premodern. By the same token, Jewishness is woven into, but also other to, Argentineity. Consequently, books, movies, and art that reflect on Jewishness play a significant role in shaping Argentina's cultural landscape. In the process they necessarily inscribe, and sometimes confound, norms of gender and sexuality. Just as Jewishness seeps into Argentina, Argentina's history, politics, and culture mark Jewishness and alter its meaning. The feminized body of the Jewish male, for example, is deeply rooted in Western tradition; but the stigmatized body of the Jewish prostitute and the lacerated body of the Jewish torture victim acquire particular significance in Argentina. Furthermore, Argentina's iconic Jewish figures include not only the peddler and the scholar, but also the Jewish gaucho and the urban mobster, troubling conventional readings of Jewish masculinity. As it searches for threads of Jewishness, richly imbued with the complexities of gender and sexuality, The Other/Argentina explores the patterns those threads weave, however overtly or subtly, into the fabric of Argentine national meaning, especially at such critical moments in Argentine history as the period of massive state-sponsored immigration, the rise of labor and anarchist movements, the Perón era, and the 1976–83 dictatorship. In arguing that Jewishness is an essential element of Argentina's self-fashioning as a modern nation, the book shifts the focus in Latin American Jewish studies from Jewish identity to the meaning of Jewishness for the nation.
