Publisher's Synopsis
When award-winning cartoonist Peter Kuper and his wife and daughter moved to the beautiful 16th-century colonial town of Oaxaca in 2006, they planned to spend a quiet year or two enjoying a different culture and taking a break from the U.S. political climate under the Bush administration. What they hadn't counted on was landing in the epicentre of Mexico's biggest political struggle in recent years events that unfolded around a teachers' strike and led to a seven-month siege.
