This year's featured country is not a country but a city, Los Angeles, a metropolis that up to a few year ago made up the world's seventh largest economy. A delegation of Los Angeles' best authors will represent the city. You would think the authors would be representative of the city's diverse community. Far from it. Too bad FIL representatives did not have the foresight to work with REFORMA librarians to select from among the best that Los Angeles has to offer. There will be a sprinkling of Latino authors there. Que lastima. So much for collaboration and mutual cooperation, and showcasing. But don't trust me on this one. See for yourself. See you at FIL 09 in Guadalajara.
