Muñoz's breakthrough collection, reissued with a new foreword by author Helena María Viramontes

Manuel Muñoz's first collection of stories goes beyond the traditional family myths of Mexican American literature and the image of California's Central Valley as a lush world of rural tranquility, instead exploring the constant struggle of characters against their physical and personal surroundings. A teenage boy learns the consequences of succumbing to the lure of a town outsider; a young farm worker attempts to hide his supervision of a group of children from the town police; a father must expose his own secrets after his son is found murdered in a highway motel. Experiencing conflicts of family and sexuality and the pain of loss and memory, the characters in Zigzagger seek to reconcile themselves with the rural towns of their upbringing--places that, by nature, are bordered by loneliness.
