The Way That Leads Among the Lost

Life, Death, and Hope in Mexico City
This is the first book ever written on the anexos. Garcia, who spent a decade conducting fieldwork in Mexico City, wrestles with the question of why mothers turn to them as a site of refuge even as they reproduce violence. Woven into these portraits is Garcia’s own powerful story of family, homelessness, and drugs - a blend of ethnography and memoir converging on a set of fundamental questions about the many forms and meanings that violence, love, care, family, and hope may take. Infused with profound ethnographic richness and moral urgency, The Way That Leads Among the Lost is a stunning work of narrative nonfiction, a book that will leave a deep mark on readers.
