The strike that lies at the center of David Chandler's powerful and timely new novel is more than an ordinary labor dispute: it is a strike by the Mexican-American agricultural workers - a strike led by a single charismatic leader, a strike whose roots lie deep in a century of exploitation, poverty and discrimination. David Chandler takes us into that world - to show us, as only a novelist can, the sudden rise of hope that crystallizes around one man, to spur on a rising tide of change and militancy. Huelga is more than a 'documentary novel' it is a deeply moving and dramatic work of fiction, with a vast cast of believable characters on both sides of the conflict." $15.00USD
