Just two years ago, the editor of a major publishing firm asked me to submit a story for a middle school reader. Those readers have the power to shape how thousands of children think about Mexican Americans. The criteria were: “It can’t have religion in it; it can’t be mystical; it can’t have Spanish in it.” Everything that was in Bless Me, Ultima was rejected out of hand before the publisher would look at a manuscript. Needless to say, I did not submit a story. 1Q ; What is one unconventional use of word choice that Anaya employs in this passage?
