Description
""Hat Dance" is Michael Thomas's third novel and best to date. . . Unlike typical over-romanticized or under-represented treatments by American authors, the Mexicans in "Hat Dance" are portrayed on a par with their yanquii counterparts." "A comic adventure full of suspense and a sense of place that evokes the taste of chili peppers, the dust of unpaved streets, the smell of raw sewage, and the pain of La Turista." "Michael A Thomas provides a peek at our sprawling and fascinating neighbor in "Hat Dance," an exuberant tale about a quirky crew of journalists as they venture on a mission." "Thomas does tell a good tale, easy to follow and with a happy ending. If you like adventure stories and Mexican settings. . . buy this book." "Thomas gives his readers a well-crafted, accurate, richly detailed, amusing and critical depiction of Mexico and her northern neighbor."
