"Often treated like night itself--both visible and invisible, feared and romanticized--Latina/os make up the largest minority group in the United States. In her newest work, María DeGuzmán explores representations of night in art and literature from the Caribbean, Colombia, Central and South America, and the United States, calling into question night's effect on the formation of identity for Latina/os in and outside the United States. She takes as her subject novels, short stories, poetry, essays, non-fiction, photo-fictions, photography, and film, and examines these texts through the lenses of nationhood, sexuality, human rights, and exoticism, among others."--Page 4 of cover.
