My own admiration for the book has a different source. As a Roman Catholic deacon committed to serving the US's migrant worker population, I find Illegal Alphabets an invaluable source of support for understanding the value of human solidarity, a value sharpened and emphasized by its emergence even in the midst of scapegoating and oppression. Kalmar's book, for me, reads as a parable of how all of us, undocumented migrant worker or US resident, Latino or Anglo, poor or rich, privileged or unprivileged, are one in our common effort to understand ourselves and each other -- indeed, to understand ourselves through understanding each other. Learning must be mutual, interactive. We are all at the same time students and teachers of each other, reciprocally strengthened by our willingness to play multiple roles of master and disciple, neither clinging to the first nor stifled by the second. What Kalmar teaches us through his clear, jargon-free discussion of the Cobden glossaries has, I believe, much to teach all Christians about how healthy the Body of Christ might become, if true solidarity really were our aim.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.InformativeBy Susan SiskA thorough treatment of a narrow topic. Well done. This book contributes to cross-culture understanding and how language holds barriers that are not at all obvious.3 of 3 people found the following review helpful.Not just for professional linguists!By Patti SaundersNo mistake about it: this is a serious book about linguistics that adds much to the ongoing debates in academia . . . but it's also a good read for anyone and lots of fun if you care about words and language and the ways people learn to communicate with each other across language barriers.If you care about human beings and social justice, this book is also for you. Biliteracy and language equality,immigration policy and how we treat migrant workers, and the whole idea of borders: as Kalmar says, "Same teacup, same storm."This book is illuminating, thought provoking, game-changing. Brilliant.See all 7 customer reviews... Publications Ofelia Garca Garca O. and Li Wei. 2014. Translanguaging: Language Bilingualism and Education. New York: Palgrave Macmillan. Garca O.
