The King and Queen of Comezón (Denise Chávez)
Norman: University of Oklahoma Press, 2014


A novel set in Comezón, NM, about life and death in the borderlands. Chávez's penchant for humor and social criticism is here at its best. The novel also deals with disability and women's emporwement. In English with frequent code-switching.

Novela ambientada en Comezón, Nuevo México, que trata sobre la vida y la muerte en la frontera. Excelente uso del hunor con fines de crítica social. La novela trata también de temas relacionados con minusvalías físicas, así como de los procesos de empoderamiento femenino. En inglés, con cambios de idioma casi constantes.
