Bag om McSweeney's Issue 65 (McSweeney's Quarterly Concern): Plundered (Guest Editor Valeria Luiselli)

McSweeney's 65: Plundered spans the American continent, from a bone-strewn Peruvian desert to inland South Texas to the streets of Mexico City, and considers the violence that shaped it. In fifteen bracing stories, the collection delves into extraction, exploitation, and defiance. How does a community, an individual, resist the plundering of land and peoples? Guest-edited by Valeria Luiselli with Heather Cleary, McSweeney's 65 brings together stories of stolen artifacts and endless job searches, of nationality-themed amusement parks and cultish banana plantations. With contributors from Brazil, Cuba, Bolivia, Mexico, Argentina, Ecuador, the United States, and elsewhere, Plundered is a sweeping portrait of a hemisphere on fire. -- summary from book jacket.
