{"product_id":"zoot-suit-luis-valdez-9781558854390","title":"Zoot Suit: A Bilingual Edition","description":"Drama. Latino\/Latina Studies. This bilingual edition combines the original English-language version with the first-ever Spanish translation of the critically acclaimed play by Luis Valdez, a work that cracked open the depiction of Chicanos on the stage, challenging viewers to revisit a troubled moment in our nation's history. From the moment the myth-infused character El Pachuco burst onto the stage, literally cutting his way through the drop curtain with a switchblade, Valdez spurred a revolution in Chicano theater. Experimenting with brash forms of narration, pop culture of the war era, and complex characterizations, this quintessential exploration of the Mexican-American experience in the United States during the 1940s was the first, and only, Chicano play to open on Broadway.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Luis Valdez\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1558854398\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781558854390\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Arte Publico Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/01\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 169\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.56lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.56h x 5.94w x 0.55d","brand":"Luis Valdez","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44047106703615,"sku":"9781558854390","price":13.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_98705aaf-8e4e-49a2-85be-b25b0df3da5a.jpg?v=1684988294","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/zoot-suit-luis-valdez-9781558854390","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
