This week's Weekend Read – an Arellano cartel kidnapping
Plus more background on these literary journalism posts
Story live this Friday at 2 pm
In case you can't wait: this Friday's Weekend Read will feature Laura McNeal's gripping account of Eddy Tostado's kidnapping in Chula Vista. The story will go live on the San Diego Reader site Friday at 2 pm.
The Reader has started this series of its best stories from the past 52 years — 2600 cover stories and some remarkable interior features — to help make up for the loss of its physical edition, which was once large enough to hold whole oceans of print. These stories will feature all the original illustrations and photos (plus easy-to-read typography), and will include new background information about the authors — some of it taken from personal correspondences. We'll hear from noted writers such as Alexander Theroux, Judith Moore, Margot Sheehan, and Linton Robinson. We'll include background information about these authors never before disclosed.
Pausing for just a moment to look back: here's a little background on last week's Weekend Read author, Tam Hoang ("Linda Vista's servile colonial subject eager to impress" (Feb. 21). In early 2015, Reader editor Jim Holman noticed that Tam Hoang, his youngest son's English teacher at Coronado High, was assigning his students the work of several World War I poets: Siegfried Sassoon, Rupert Brooke, and Robert Graves. The next thing Holman heard was that the teacher had been put on suspension because of accusations of discrimination against a white student. Would Hoang be interested in writing for the Reader? Yes he would: he produced an exquisitely wrought story about an outsider approaching the English language.
He also wrote:
I adored American Christmas
The stories not told
They said no to box checking
Linda Vista in conflict with itself
Last June, Hoang was chosen by Coronado High to teach state-mandated ethnic studies, what Hoang calls Ethnic Literature.
