513 life as nightmares. In such instances his periodic attention to his troubling dreams throughout this period off ers powerful departure points from which he explores irrational human tendencies toward othering and exclusion, the concept of “moral injury” (150– 51), and our willful denial of the realities of violence and suff ering these entail (163– 65). Beyond the book’s acute timeliness, its storytelling (both fi rstand secondhand) is compelling, and many passages are evocative and nuanced as desert writing. Th ese are stories that require our attention, and we should be pleased to see them fi nding this new vantage point and larger audience in Cantú’s book. English Brooks Snow College

来自草原的聚会：Linda M. Hasselstrom 的平原日记

513 人生如噩梦。在这种情况下，他在此期间对他令人不安的梦想的定期关注提供了强有力的出发点，从中他探索了非理性的人类对他人和排斥的倾向，“道德伤害”的概念（150-51）以及我们对现实的故意否认暴力和遭受这些带来的痛苦（163-65）。除了这本书的敏锐及时性之外，它的故事讲述（都是二手的）也很引人注目，许多段落都像沙漠写作一样令人回味和微妙。这些是需要我们关注的故事，我们应该很高兴看到他们在坎图的书中找到了这个新的有利位置和更多的读者。英语布鲁克斯斯诺学院
