Summary:"Translated into English by Sarah Booker, GRIEVING is Cristina Rivera Garza's collection of short crónicas, journalism, and personal essays on systemic violence in contemporary Mexico and along the US-Mexico border. Drawing together horror theory and historical analysis, Rivera Garza outlines how neoliberalism, corruption, and drug trafficking-culminating in the misnamed "war on drugs"-has shaped her country. Working from and against this political context, Rivera Garza posits that collective grief and writing is a mode of seeking social justice"--
