When the first edition of El Libro de Caló: Pachuco Slang Dictionary appeared in 1983, it was critically acclaimed as a much needed guide to a little-understood living dialect spoken predominantly by Mexican American teenagers whose dress, speech, low-rider cars, and attitudes set them off from those around them. Caló is popularly regarded as a bastard dialect, neither Spanish nor English. Linguistically, these notions are ill-founded; Caló has as much validity and expressive potential as any other dialect. That it is used by a group of people who exist at the edges of mainstream culture, however, has brought it into disrepute, and not many studies of Caló have been carried out with the thoroughness of this work. Now, building on that first landmark study, the authors have produced an expanded, revised edition. Based primarily on data gathered in the San Diego/Tijuana and Calexico/Mexicali areas, this edition incorporates terms from Texas, New Mexico and other areas of the Southwest as well. In an easy-to-use format designed to appeal to the native English-speaker, El Libro de Caló: The Chicano Slang Dictionary provides a unique and fascinating view of one aspect of our border culture. "As an anthropological record of a little-studied people, this work will have ... permanent value. Recommended for public and academic libraries in California and the Southwest...

Poetry. In an unbroken poem of heat and breadth, Polkinhorn explores the phenomena of blue shifting, or inescapable convergence. With an urgency that is at once sprawling and specific, Polkinhorn draws us back towards our own lives -- forcing us into their rapid intersections and tight corners. It is ferociously driven. Take a big breath and buckle yourself in for the ride -- nowhere you// Can imagine yet their guiltless movements utterly/ Charm you a frisson of recognition the thin// Light a flickering haze and hints of people you/ May have known whose insubstantial forms// Or the abortion that eliminated its chance/ Still barring your way until dawn/ Which will return with its load of cold to be offered/ Up your forearms thigh-bones to keep the channel// Open but whose infancy or vaunted genealogy/ Like a rogue phenotype if you pay strict attention. Harry Polkinhorn is an experimental poet/artist, translator, and editor whose works have been exhibited and published worldwide.
