Examining neighborhoods in east, south central, and west L.A.--and their imaginative representation by Chicana, African American, and Jewish American writers--this book investigates the moral and political implications of negotiating space. The Border and the Line takes up the central conceit of "the neighbor" to consider how the geography of racial identification and interracial encounters are represented and even made possible by literary language. Dean J. Franco probes how race is formed and transformed in literature and in everyday life, in the works of Helena María Viramontes, Paul Beatty, James Baldwin, and the writers of the Watts Writers Workshop. Exploring metaphor and metonymy, as well as economic and political circumstance, Franco identifies the potential for reconciliation in the figure of the neighbor, an identity that is grounded by geographical boundaries and which invites their crossing. 588 0 Online resource; title from PDF file page (EBSCO, viewed November 28, 2018). 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 American literature|zCalifornia|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2009114802|zLos Angeles|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n79021240-781|xJewish authors |0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99004955 |xHistory and criticism.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh99001187 650 0 American literature|xAfrican American authors|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85004342|zCalifornia |zLos Angeles|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n79021240-781|xHistory and criticism.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh99001187 650 0 American literature|zCalifornia|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2009114802|zLos Angeles|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n79021240-781|xHispanic American authors|xHistory and criticism. 650 7 American literature.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 807113 650 7 Jewish authors.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/982665 650 7 American literature|xAfrican American authors.|2fast |0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/807114 650 7 Hispanic American authors.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/957343 651 7 California|zLos Angeles.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1204540 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 Criticism, interpretation, etc.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1411635 776 08 |iPrint version:|aFranco, Dean J., 1968-|tBorder and the Line.|dStanford, California : Stanford University Press, 2019|z1503607291|z9781503607293|w(OCoLC)1022982045 830 0 Stanford studies in comparative race and ethnicity.|0https ://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2012069274 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=1943784|zOnline eBook via EBSCO.
