“Imagine Borderlands as a timeless pyramid of ideas that has been added to, deconstructed, reconstructed, transcribed, translated, and trans-interpreted by every generation of Chicanx and non-Chicanx feminist scholars in the thirty-five years since its publication. This critical edition offers both a painstakingly articulated scholarly scaffolding around Anzaldúa’s original text and a bridge into the life and memory of the author who designed the blueprint of that pyramid.”
— Alicia Gaspar de Alba, Professor of Chicana/o Studies, English, and Gender Studies, UCLA

Vivancos-Pérez takes readers by the hand in this straightforward, well-crafted edition, offering a detailed introduction describing the eminent author’s iterative process of writing Borderlands. The archival documents—including unpublished poetry and essays with Anzaldúa’s own annotations—add flavor, temperament, and in-depth insight into the complex philosopher’s early writings. Scholars, students, family, soul-mates, and friends of Anzaldúa (myself included) will be thrilled with this long-awaited, noteworthy critical edition.”
— Emma Pérez, author of The Decolonial Imaginary: Writing Chicanas into History

“Readers will delight in the new pathways to Anzaldúan thought thanks to the work of the editors. Whether coming to Anzaldúan thought for the first time or returning again to a much-treasured Borderlands, the editors’ loving care will enable us all to hear her call—no hay más que cambiar .  . . there’s nothing else to do but change.”
— Nancy Tuana, author of Beyond Philosophy: Nietzsche, Foucault, Anzaldúa
