Some time ago I incurred the wrath of several members by stating that things markedly castellano...including the zeta and vosotros...were not always taken well here in the Southwest. Now here I am, trying to catch up on my reading, and the attitude I was referring to is right there in Anaya's latest book, Shaman Winter! Keep in mind that Anaya is a very respected author! I don't know if the idea appeals to anyone, but I'd like to share impressions of this book with someone from the group. I think those who live some distance from the Southwest (or who do not really deal with the Mecha/Hispanic movement) might be surprised by the hostility towards both the Spaniards and Americans that runs through this novel!
