Veracruz


Veracruz is a city on the Gulf of Mexico coast, in the state Veracruz in Mexico. The city, which is sometimes known as "Puerto de Veracruz" to distinguish from the state, was originally founded as a sea port by Hernán Cortés in 1519 during the early stages of his conquest of Mexico for Spain. The settelement was originally known as La Villa Rica de la Vera Cruz (meaning "The rich town of the true cross"), and even today, this name is still sometimes used.

As of the 2005 census, Veracruz had a population of 444,438 people living in the city itself, and 512,310 living in the municipality.

Product Description:
As author Barry Gifford was writing these pieces, he gradually came to realize that what he was creating was a geographical fiction, or a geography of fictions. As Barry explains, "Everybody has a story, no matter where they are in the world, and I conceived the device of The Ropedancer when I was in Veracruz, Mexico, at a hotel much like the Hotel Los Regalos de Dios, where the former funambulist, whom I call The Ropedancer, took up residence following the demise of the Dancing Ciegas, who plunged to their deaths from a high wire."

Many of these stories are tragic, some humorous, but all told by individuals in the confessional mode which is often the posture assumed by persons adrift in a foreign land and who find themselves not uncomfortably in conversation late at night with a stranger.
