"Community-published anthology of stories and photos about the experience of return and deportation to Mexico after having grown up in the United States. Twenty-six youth shared their stories in their own words with Dr. Jill Anderson, who then edited their contributions into a collective testimonio. Some of the contributors wrote essays, others responded to a questionnaire, and still others participated in an interview with Jill. Each chose to respond in the language of their choice (English, Spanish, Spanglish). The translation into their other languages (English, Spanish, and/or their indigenous language) is included in the back of the book. Nin Solis visited each participant and took photographs of their homes and neighborhoods, as well as a portrait of each returning 2Otro Dreamer3. The photographs offer a distinct but parallel reading of the physical and personal spaces in which these young people are crafting their adult lives in the aftermath of return, whether voluntary or forced."--Llosotrosdreamersthebook.com website.

My Heart Attacked Me and I Won Design Hearts Still Beating

In 2005, Jill Anderson went on trial at Leeds Crown Court for the manslaughter of her husband of eight years. Paul, a 43-year-old linguist, had been suffering for several years from the debilitating effects of ME and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome with complications, and had previously attempted suicide. But one day, while Jill was out of the house, he took enough pills to ensure his own death. When she returned home Paul told Jill he had 'taken enough this time' and begged her not to get assistance. She honoured her beloved partner's wishes and, although consumed by grief, allowed him to slip slowly away. Then the full weight of the law came down upon her. She was interrogated by Harrogate Police, had her passport taken away, and faced up to 15 years in jail. Her story was followed by the nation's media and, although too unwell to take the stand at her trial, she was acquitted by a unanimous not guilty verdict. This is Jill's powerfully and elegantly written full story. Stark police interview transcripts sit alongside the love story of Jill and Paul's early, happy years before they faced the desperation of living with a medical issue with no known cure. This astonishingly honest book leaves the reader asking: 'What would I have done in her situation?' It is an unforgettable and deeply moving account of love in extremis.
