«--¿Cómo se llama este pueblo, señor?--Es San Juan Bautista Coixtlahuaca --dijo--. Allá está el viejo convento. Era una iglesia rota, enorme, hueca y solitaria.
--¿Qué significa Coixtlahuaca?
--El llano de las serpientes.» Paul Theroux ha recorrido el mundo en busca de las historias y los pueblos que dan vida a los lugares que llaman hogar. Ahora, mientras los debates sobre inmigración hierven en todo el mundo, Theroux se ha propuesto explorar un país clave para comprender el discurso global actual: México. Con la misma sensibilidad humanizadora que lo caracteriza, el legendario escritor de viajes recorre toda la frontera entre Estados Unidos y México, se adentra en las carreteras de Chiapas y Oaxaca, visita a los trabajadores de los molinos zapotecas en el altiplano y asiste a una reunión del partido zapatista para descubrir el mundo rico y estratificado que también hay detrás de un país convulso. «Hace amigos, va a todos lados, aprende español con otros extranjeros, ve cómo hacen mezcal, toma clases de cocina y, sobre todo, aprende y escucha, una de las lecciones del libro. [...] Un libro tan complejo, tan interesante y sobre todo tan imprescindible.» --Pedro Ángel Palou, El Heraldo ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The legendary travel writer drives the entire length of the US-Mexico border, then takes the back roads of Chiapas and Oaxaca, to uncover the rich, layered world behind the everyday headlines. Paul Theroux has spent his life crisscrossing the globe in search of the histories and peoples that give life to the places they call home. Now, as immigration debates boil around the world, Theroux has set out to explore a country key to understanding our current discourse: Mexico. Just south of the Arizona border, in the desert region of Sonora, he finds a place brimming with vitality, yet visibly marked by both the US Border Patrol to the north and mounting discord from within. With the same humanizing sensibility that he employed in Deep South, Theroux stops to talk with residents, visits Zapotec mill workers in the highlands, and attends a Zapatista party meeting, communing with people of all stripes who remain south of the border even as family members brave the journey north. From the writer praised for his "curiosity and affection for humanity in all its forms" (The New York Times Book Review), On the Plain of Snakes is an exploration of a region in conflict.

Fun in a Great Toy & Fantastic Bargain!
Style: Mummy with Organs
LOVE THIS DOG TOY!! We have 5 rescue dogs, a 13# little one, & 4 lg ones from 70-100 lbs! This toy is fantastic for all of them! It’s so much fun pulling out the various inner “organs” & handing them out (when we first got it)! The dogs were So Excited getting the different parts & squeaking them like Crazy! The main big mummy (10”+) squeaks & crinkles, which goes over really well, too! The nice thing is the center of the mummy, where all the parts are held, is opened/closed via a sturdy zipper! Unlike other items with “stuffed parts” that have Velcro strips to hold the items inside, that ends up all wet & destroyed by chewing, the zipper allows me to open it & close it. This allows my smarter dogs more of a challenge as they can’t just easily open it & get the items inside pulled out a few routine times & then get bored & just destroy them & the Velcro! It also allows me to keep some of the smaller items that I like to keep intact for my small 13# dog, inside the mummy body where they’re protected from my Pit Bull mixes who chew the small toys like gum (I supervise, of course!) destroying the squeakers inside after a few good chomps! This toy is very well made! Despite being aggressively played with by very lg dogs with very strong jaws, every toy (except the set of lungs which have small sections holding them together) has held together, which is a big surprise! Most toys last minutes in this house! The mummy has held up well, with the zipper closed, too! This is such a great bargain for All the toys you get in this set & even You will have fun pulling out the insides & going back to your old High School Biology class to figure out what organ is which! My husband & I had a blast along with our 5 pups playing with this fun set of well made toys! We’re buying another set to have for back up once this set bites the dust! Yeah, it’s That Great!! If you have a small dog, or even a couple, there are so many smaller toys that you can keep some of them aside & introduce them later! A really Great Bargain & Lots of Fun!

cute, fun and great for dogs that don't instantly destroy toys
Style: Mummy with Organs
The dog LOVED this toy! She loved it to pieces she played with it so much! The organs and the mummy are very cute. There are a variety of different sound/ textures to the pieces. The zipper was the first thing that broke after enough shaking by the dog. It is neat that you get so many pieces in one toy and that they all fit inside the mummy's belly zipper. It is a stuffie soft toy, so if your dog is a squeaker harvester, this toy will not last long. It is well made though of your dog isn't a toy destroyer. I like that different types of stuffing the pieces have. Some are krinkly and some have squeakers.

Great toy!
Style: Pilot Pig
My dogs love it! Even though they are smaller (~16 lbs), they had fun trying to open the pig up and get to the other toys which are much more their size. I bought a similar one, the mummy, for Halloween and they loved that one too. It's rather durable - thick fabric, well-constructed. I could see larger dogs not destroying it as easily as other plush toys. Would recommend!

Adorable and Fun BUT the Zipper Can Cause a Safety Hazard
Style: Mummy with Organs, Style: Mummy with Organs
My dog is having a blast with this Halloween toy from Nocciola! The mummy is large, soft, and delightfully spooky—such a fun way to spoil your pup for the season. It has a zipper that opens up to reveal all the “insides” you’d expect from a proper mummy: lungs, heart, liver, bone, and more. Each little piece is well made, with some squeaking and others crinkling to keep dogs engaged and entertained.
The only drawback I ran into is the zipper. My pup zeroed in on it and managed to chew it off within minutes. Depending on your dog’s chewing style, the zipper could be a concern.
That said, the toy is still a hit in our house. My dog loves digging out the little pieces and then watching me put them back so she can start all over again. She also enjoys playing with the smaller toys individually, which gives her even more ways to stay busy and entertained.

Durable, entertaining and quality
Style: Pilot Pig
I got this for my neph-dog and he was OBSESSED. The ability to rip the guts out was exactly what he needed after a long day of being cute. The quality is great and he has been able to rip out its guts countless times, throw a treat or two in there? Yeah that's the best day ever for him. Humor and durability? 5 stars for me
