I am deeply honored to receive the 2025 Juan E. Méndez Book Award for EXIT WOUNDS @ucpress.bsky.social and I am enormously grateful to the people who made this possible and who trusted me enough to share their stories of what it's like to live with and around guns in Mexico

To follow tradition, here it is - my unabashedly partial list of eleven most remarkable books I read in 2024. It turns out I read a lot of new books this year and not that many old (unusual), and more nonfiction than fiction (also unusual), which is reflected in this limited selection of favorites

Honored to see EXIT WOUNDS among the finalists for the Juan E. Méndez Book Award! The best thing, though, is to be in such fabulous company of books on Latin America written by some of my favorite people @jonathanblitzer.bsky.social @jasondeleon.bsky.social @dukehumanrights.bsky.social

What an attentive, thoughtful, and generous review of Exit Wounds by the one who taught me how to be an anthropologist (and didn’t mind that I also became an EMT).
