Urrea, Luis Alberto	The devil's highway a true story Back Bay Books, New York, NY (2005) Standort: 818 Urr Schlagworte: Crimes against, Emigration and Immigration, Human Smuggling, Illegal aliens, Immigrants, Mexican-American Border Region, Mexico, Social Aspects, Social Conditions Details hier Inhalt: Illegal aliens -- Crimes against -- Mexican-American Border Region. Human smuggling -- Mexican-American Border Region. Mexico -- Emigration and immigration -- Social aspects. United States -- Emigration and immigration -- Social aspects. Mexican-American Border Region -- Social conditions. So many illegal immigrants die in the desert Southwest of the U.S. that only notorious catastrophes make headlines. Urrea reconstructs one such incident in the Sonoran Desert, the ordeal of sun and thirst of two dozen men in May 2001, half of whom suffered excruciating deaths. They came from Vera Cruz; their so-called guide came from Guadalajara.esus Lopez Ramos was no master of orienteering, however, just an expendable bottom-feeder in the border's human-smuggling racket. Tracing their lives and the routes to the border, Urrea adopts a slangy, surreal style in which the desert landscape shimmers and distorts, while in desiccated border settlements criminals, officials, and vigilantes patrol for human cargo such as the men from Vera Cruz. The imaginative license Urrea takes, paralleling the laconic facts of the case that he incorporates into his narrative, produces a powerful, almost diabolical impression of the disaster and the exploitative conditions at the border. Urrea shows immigration policy on the human level. Systematik: 818 , , 325, , 304.8 Umfang: 239 S.
