novel La Linea, Ann Jaramillo tells the story of fifteen-year-old Miguel, who leaves his home in Mexico to illegally cross the US-Mexican border. He leaves for California, where his parents and two of his sisters have lived for the past seven years. His parents left first, in order to make money for their children to cross la linea later. Miguel and his younger sister Elena thus live with their grandmother on a rancho in the small Mexican village San Jacinto. On his fifteenth birthday, Miguel receives the letter he has waited for his entire life. A letter from his father tells him to go see Don Clemente, a rich and successful immigrant smuggler. Don Clemente provides Miguel with proper instructions. Miguel’s carefully planned journey seems to fail, when Elena stows away from home and follows him. When Miguel finds out, he wants to send her back home, but Elena is determined to come with him. Elena gets them into trouble in the beginning; they are discovered by the federales and sent all the way to Guatemala. There, they are robbed during the night and lose their entire possessions. However, also thanks to Elena, they do not have to go back home, because she hid some of her money that was not found by the robbers. Through her, they meet Javier, an adult who also wants to cross the border and helps the two children to get on the Mata Gente, a dangerous freight train that goes up all the way to the border. In the north, they meet el Plomero, who was paid by Don Clemente to get the kids across the border. El Plomero even accompanies them into the desert, but is shot by the border police shortly after. Javier, who is injured and feels that he is a burden for the children, leaves them during the night and probably dies in the desert. Miguel and Elena succeed in crossing the border but the novel leaves open what happens after their arrival. In the epilogue, which takes place ten years later, we learn that Elena returned to Mexico, whereas Miguel stayed in California.

The author takes the reader on a trip: It is an adventurous way from the Mexican countryside, through the desert across the US-Mexican border, into an urban American environment. But it is also a trip into the mind of a young adult who is looking for his parents’ love and appreciation, who is struggling with his identity, and who needs to grow up fast and make responsible decisions for himself and his younger sister at an early age.

Critical analysis

Mexican culture is portrayed in a thorough, non-stereotypical way in La Linea. The reader learns about the traditional way, but is immediately confronted with the exception to the rule. Reflecting on his name, Miguel says “I was the firstborn, so Papá should have named me Domingo, after himself and Abuelo and Bisabuelo and Tatarabuelo [...] but he named me after the authors he admired. Those were his saints, so those were the names I got.” (Jaramillo: 6) Stereotypically, Mexican society is often claimed to be male-dominated. Elena, however, is portrayed as a rebellious young girl who is not afraid to speak her mind. When Miguel tells Elena to cover up, she responds “Who are you to judge?” (14). Miguel thinks that parental authority is still important in his culture, but as a male brother, he has no authority over his female sister: “I could scold her about dishonouring the family, but I wasn’t her parent, and she knew it. She wasn’t about to let me tell her how she could dress.”

Excerpt from Pieces of the Past
Erin Sullivan
Nate slammed the garage door shut with a loud bang-hopefully loud enough for Granddad to hear from inside the house. Nate
was angry, angry at his parents for abandoning him at this house during his long vacation, angry for having to spend a beautiful
sunny day clearing out a dark and damp garage.
2 The dusty garage once housed vehicles, but over time it became cramped with Granddad's possessions. Tightly packed boxes,
bags, and trunks were stacked to the ceiling.

Trash Management

(1) Every day, people discard something or the other in garbage cans. (2) According to recent data, Americans throw trash that can fill 63,000 trucks every day. (3) How will humans be able to manage so much trash at this rate? (4) And, do people ever spare even a second from 86400 seconds of a day to think where all this garbage goes?
(5) Managing trash is assuming serious threats today, and the turnover of the garbage is estimated to increase three times by the end of the century.
(6) Trash is managed in different ways. (7) Some of it is buried, some of it is thrown into dumping grounds, while some of it is burned. (8) But all these methods create other issues. (9) Burying and dumping trash can only be done up to an extent after which the garbage starts piling and starts spreading diseases. (10) While burning trash may get rid of it instantly, the smoke that it creates, in turn, pollutes the air.
(11) It is a good idea to use and reuse things to reduce waste so that we do not face issues with trash management in the future. (12) For example, cookie jars and tins could be reused to store pulses, lentils, flour, or spices. (13) Most importantly, each one should develop the habit of donating books, clothes, and toys to those in need and not throw them in the trash.
(14) Everyone's primary aim should be to reduce waste, which in turn will lift the pressure of managing it.
