NewWest.Net: Culture clash, unresolved.

A White Girl Embraces Mexican Culture in “Gringa”. “Hart pursues her interest in Mexican-American culture with abandon throughout her childhood and young adulthood, befriending Latinos and hanging out at their houses and parties, and finding a Mexican-American boyfriend when she is in college. They move in together and date for over a year before Hart realizes the relationship isn’t working — he’s uneducated and his family enforces strict gender roles, segregating women from men at gatherings.” Can’t be a ‘60’s bohemian with those constraints. Next book, perhaps we’ll find out the conclusion?
