Abstract

In 'Magical Habits,' Monica Huerta delivers a labyrinthine and whimsical study on the intersection between stories, race, place, and archive. The author's lived experience as a second-generation Mexican immigrant living in Chicago is dissected to bring about an original understanding of how race complicates notions of history, capitalism, and narratives of the self. The reader's curiosity will be piqued by 'Magical Habits'' experimental structure, and by the author's decision to abandon traditional academic writing in favor of an intimate prose that fluctuates between storytelling and critical thinking.

《魔法习惯评论》莫妮卡·韦尔塔著(杜克大学出版社)
在《神奇的习惯》一书中,莫妮卡·韦尔塔对故事、种族、地点和档案之间的交集进行了迷宫般的、异想天开的研究。作者剖析了自己作为第二代墨西哥移民在芝加哥的生活经历,对种族如何使历史、资本主义和自我叙述的概念复杂化提出了独到的理解。《神奇的习惯》的实验结构会激起读者的好奇心,作者决定放弃传统的学术写作,转而采用一种在讲故事和批判性思维之间波动的亲密散文。
