520 1 $a"First Stop in the New World is a street-level panorama of Mexico City, the largest metropolis in the western hemisphere and the cultural capital of the Spanish-speaking world. The book sweeps across the 560-square-mile city, covering the sex industry and the corrupt police, the dense jungle of urban politics and the brutal interactions of everyday commerce. It takes in the richest man in the world and a guy who hawks newspapers at a traffic intersection. Lida expertly captures the kaleidoscopic nature of life in a city defined by pleasure and danger, ecstatic joy and appalling tragedy - hanging in limbo between the developed and underdeveloped worlds."--BOOK JACKET.
