DamaNegra, I know you would enjoy Rocamora.
Is B&N on line available in Mexico? Can your booksellers order through Ingram/Books in Print?
Booksellers, as a rule, are a joke around here. But nobody in this country reads, so it doesn't matter (Mexicans read, in average, 1.4 books a year. I think that's an exageration). I'll try and get it online, but shipping is kind of expensive, so I'm waiting until my list grows enough to justify it.
Also, regarding Wikipedia, I adore it. You can find articles of just about
everything on it. Sure, it's not completely accurate but just now I read the article about the May 15 incident in Japan, and it gave me a nice overview of the subject, and I wasn't planning on becoming an expert, anyway. I was just curious about the subject after reading about it in Mishima's
Runaway horses. (btw, I used Wikipedia to find the name of the novel in English, because I have it in Spanish)
When doing research for a school proyect, the first source I go to is Wikipedia. There, I get a list of names and key words that will help me in my research. I also visit all the sources listed and look for the reference books in my school library. If people learned to use it as the great starting point it is, instead of using it as the only source, Wikipedia wouldn't be as reviled as it is right now.
