Recenzje

Jonathan Calvillo's The Saints of Santa Ana is a deeply moving, richly detailed account of life in the most Mexican community in the United States. Calvillo's historical and ethnographic account of the sacred nature of space, belonging, and identity deepens our best understandings of religion and Latinidad. A must-read for any serious scholar of religion, immigration, or Latina/o/x studies.
