Non-Fiction Memoir
In his dazzling new memoir, Richard Rodriguez reflects on
the color brown and the meaning of Hispanics to the life of
America today. Rodriguez argues that America has been brown
since its inception-since the moment the African and the
European met within the Indian eye. But more than simply a
book about race, Brown is about America in the broadest
sense-a look at what our country is, full of surprising
observations by a writer who is a marvelous stylist as well
as a trenchant observer and thinker.
