Omschrijving
Through La Cucaracha, creator Lalo Alcaraz makes blunt social comment both hard-hitting and hilarious. The result-La Cucaracha is not just a pleasure, but also a craving for thousands of readers in more than 60 newspapers.The strong undercurrent of modern Latino themes and issues adds a sharp layer of meaning to the humor. In one strip, an immigrant bartender has listened to two customers rant, "I'm telling ya, there's too many immigrants pouring into this country." When one of the customers asks for another drink the bartender declares, "I'm an immigrant, and guess what? I'm not pouring!"This first of perceptive La Cucaracha humor will delight and gratify all audiences that appreciate intelligent, progressive, deeply amusing comics.
