Lunar Braceros

This book is published by Floricanto Press. www.floricantopress.comwww.LatinoBooks.netTwenty-second century Cholos living on Cali-Texas Reservations have few options. One of them is signing up as Moon Tecos, technicians disposing of Earthâ€™s waste on Lunar sites. After discovering that their Teco contracts are one-way tickets, the Lunar Braceros are forced to take matters into their own hands.

â€œItâ€™s like nothing Iâ€™ve ever read. Lunar Braceros delivers. Itâ€™s a powerful social narrative that creates an alternative imaginative reality and explores the dynamics of space travel in relation to the AmÃ©ricas.â€ Angie Chabram, UC Davis

Iâ€™ve been waiting for this kind of novel for most of my life, a work of science ï¬ction from below, focused on people of color, that takes on big ideas about history, politics, capitalism, philosophy, and science.â€ Curtis MÃ¡rez, UC San Diego

Rosaura SÃ¡nchez and Beatrice Pita teach in the Literature Department at the University of California, San Diego.
