Yet the variegated presence of Spanish-speaking peoples in the United States - of immigrants and native born, of Native American, African, and European ancestry, of all skin colors, social classes, and religious and political affiliations, calling any number of places home - has contributed enormously to what we now know as American culture. Whereas other anthologies have focused either on a narrow grouping according to national origin or on a single literary form, Currents from the Dancing River - bringing together 135 works whose main commonality is that of quality - is the first collection of such breadth and comprehensiveness. Its variety of style and content gives the most realistic possible portrait of what Latino might mean. ; Contents Enrique Fernandez -- Salsa x 2 -- Arturo Islas -- Chiles -- Aurora Levins Morales -- Puertoricanness -- Immigrants -- Kitchens -- 1930 -- Luis Omar Salinas -- Let's Begin the Day -- Prayer to the Child of Prague -- Courtship of Darkness -- Abraham Rodriguez, Jr. -- The Lotto -- Silvia Curbelo -- Bringing Her Back -- Lunes de Revolucion -- Floating -- Rosemary Catacalos -- Paying Respects -- Taking the Air -- Ariadne Seven Years Later -- Judith Ortiz Cofer -- The Black Virgin -- The Witch's Husband -- Julio Marzan -- What We Don't Know About the Climb to Heaven -- Richard Garcia -- La Calle del Nino Perdido -- Doing the Tarantella with Lola Montez -- Open Letter to My Friends -- Rafael Campo -- A Case of Mistaken Identities: The Human Body -- Luis Alberto Urrea -- Father's Day -- Miguel Pinero -- On the Day They Buried My Mother . . . -- This Is Not the Place Where I Was Born -- Gloria Anzaldua -- Ghost Trap -- Puddles -- Juan Felipe Herrera -- The Cassettes -- Notes on Other Chicana & Chicano Inventions -- Rodney King, the Black Christ of Los Angeles and All of Our White Sins - May 1, 1992 -- Zoot Suit on a Bed of Spanish Rice -- Milagros & Angels -- Mariachi Drag Star -- Kleya Forte-Escamilla -- Adonde Vive Dios? -- Helena Maria Viramontes -- Tears on My Pillow -- Alberto Rios -- Nicanor, Saturday -- How the Mouth Works -- The Vietnam Wall -- Rosa Maria Arenas -- Mother of Shrines -- Mother of the Long Good-bye -- Mother of the Historical Tree -- Jack Agueros -- Psalm for Your Image -- Sonnet for Mars -- Sonnet for Angelo Monterosa -- Dagoberto Gilb -- Look on the Bright Side -- Marisella Vejga -- The Graduation -- Victor Martinez -- Gravity -- The Seed Must Kill -- A Letter from My Mother -- Leo Romero -- Miguelito, Miguelito -- Backward Facing Man -- Aristeo Brito -- From The Devil in Texas -- Mary Helen Ponce -- The Day Rito Died -- Gary Soto -- Black Hair -- Pat Mora -- Dear Frida -- The Itch -- Ricardo Pau-Llosa -- Seals -- Swirling Lines -- Minas de Cobre -- Ruth Warat -- Love and Hunt in the Dark Room -- Inquisitors, Dead and in Power.

What are the ideal forms of institutions, from science academies to schools and governments? What freedoms can people expect in space and how will governance beyond Earth tread the fine line between authority and liberty.…
