Coming off the most successful book of a decorated career\u2014Say Her Name<\/i>\u2014The Interior Circuit<\/i> is Francisco Goldman\u2019s timely and provocative journey into the heart of Mexico City.<\/b><\/p>\n

The Interior Circuit<\/i> is Goldman\u2019s story of his emergence from grief five years after his wife\u2019s death, symbolized by his attempt to overcome his fear of driving in the city. Embracing the DF (Mexico City) as his home, Goldman explores and celebrates the city, which stands defiantly apart from so many of the social ills and violence wracking Mexico. This is the chronicle of an awakening, both personal and political, \u201cinterior\u201d and \u201cexterior,\u201d to the meaning and responsibilities of home. Mexico\u2019s narco war rages on and, with the restoration of the Institutional Revolutionary Party (the PRI) to power in the summer\u2019s 2012 elections, the DF\u2019s special apartness seems threatened. In the summer of 2013, when Mexican organized crime violence and death erupts in the city in an unprecedented way, Goldman sets out to try to understand the menacing challenges the city now faces. By turns exuberant, poetic, reportorial, philosophic, and urgent, The Interior Circuit<\/i> fuses a personal journey to an account of one of the world\u2019s most remarkable and often misunderstood cities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
