If I Die in Ju‡rez

Stella Pope Duarte

Social Science / Ethnic Studies / Hispanic American Studies

From the red-light districts in Ciudad Ju‡rez to remote villages hidden away in the mountains of Chihuahua comes a tale of one of the darkest crimes to be recorded in the history of humankind. If I Die in Ju‡rez traces the lives of three young womenÑEvita, a street child; Petra, a maquiladora worker; and Mayela, a Tarahumara Indian girlÑwho together uncover Ju‡rezÕs forbidden secret: the abduction and murder of young women. Bound together by blood, honor, an ancient chant, and a mysterious photo, the girls bring the murderous streets of Ju‡rez to life.

Based on the authorÕs interviews with relatives of murdered women, If I Die in Ju‡rez is brilliantly crafted to give readers the experience of walking in the shoes of women who daily risk being abducted and murdered in the Òcapital city of murdered women,Ó joining thousands of others who for more than a decade have disappeared from Ju‡rez, las desaparecidas, brutally murdered by assassins who have gone unpunished. The agony of one of the darkest tales in human history brings to light a strange hope, illusive yet constant, resisting lies, betrayal, and the desertÕs silent sentence of death.
