This anthology brought together sixteen authors around the figure of Selena, although it would be more precise to say about what the time that her music (and her death) brings to our memory meant for each one.
It is evident that, although the imaginary of Selena's songs contributed elements to pure fiction, she also led some texts towards issues that were already painful in the nineties and have only worsened. In search of the musical identity of the Texan, but without wanting to simplify it into a hit list, the logic of collaboration was to take as a base the repertoire of the Houston Astrodome concert, her most famous performance, perhaps because it was her last. . At that concert she faces an unusual audience: she sings in Houston, but not necessarily for Houstonians. So throughout her performance she talks to them, to those who are there, she says: Hey, Houston, Mexico. Our book also wanted to be inclusive, diverse; the result ranges from personal chronicles to experimental poetry, from realistic to futuristic fiction, from humor to violence, and presents the work of new and renowned authors. It tries to be a meeting point between the seemingly dissymbolic: a border book in more ways than one.
