26、ty for media sensation, a fairy routine lawsuit of its kind. It does, however, have enormous social significance. For those of us who care about sexual harassment, the matter of Jones v. Clinton is a great conundrum. Consider: if Jones, the former Arkansas state employee, proves her claims, then we

27、must face the fact that we helped to elect someone - Bill Clinton - who has betrayed us on this vital issue. But if she is proved to be lying, then we must accept that we pushed onto the public agenda an issue that is venerable to manipulation by alleged victims. The skeptics will use Jones case to

28、cast doubt on the whole cause. Still, Ms Jones deserves the chance to prove her case; she has a right to pursue this claim and have the process work. It will be difficult: these kinds of cases usually are, and Ms. Jones task of suing a sitting president is harder than most. She does have one thing s

29、itting on her side: her case is in the courts. Sexual-harassment claims are really about violations of the alleged victims civil rights, and there is no better forum for determining and assessing those violations - and finding the truth - than federal court. The judicial system can put aside politic

30、al to decide these complicated issues. That is a feat that neither the Senate Judicial nor ethics committees have been able to accomplish- witness the Clarence Thomas and Bob Packwood affairs. One lesson: the legal arena, not the political one, is the place to settle these sensitive problems. Some h

31、ave argued that the people (the feminists) who rallied around me have failed to support Jones. Our situations, however, are quite different. In 1991 the country was in the middle of a public debate over whether Clarence Thomas should be confirmed to the Supreme Court. Throughout that summer, interes

32、t groups on both sides weighed in on his nomination. It was a public forum that invited a public conversation. But a pending civil action - even one against the president - does not generally invite that kind of public engagement. Most of the public seems content to let the process move forward. And

33、 given the conundrum created by the claim, it is no wonder that many (feminists included) have been slow to jump into the Jones-Clinton fray. But people from all walks of life remain open to her suit. We dont yet know which outcome we must confront: the president who betrayed the issue or the woman

34、who used it. Whichever it is, we should continue to pursue sexual harassment with the same kind of energy and interest in eliminating the problem that we have in the past, regardless of who is the accused or the accuser. The statistics show that about 40 percent of women in the work force will encou

36、the writers will to write is rebellion, a rejection and criticism of life as it is. Moreover, he speculates, it is even possible that good literature may inspire actual acts of rebellion when the reader compares the better world of the book to the relative junk heap of real life. Whether or not this

37、 is universally true, its an attractive idea, and, in its way, a comforting one. Language is a lever that might move the enormous weight of the fickle, war-torn world we live in. Its free, universal and highly portable: better than plastic bomb and difficult to govern. Vargas Llosas idea is also, of

38、 course, a writerly sort of realpolitik, a wish that a good novel - or story or poem - can literally remake history. When Luis Alberto Urrea began his epic novel, The Hummingbirds Daughter, 20 years ago, the United States was in the first phase of a conservative backlash, the culture wars were gathe

39、ring steam, and the left felt itself to be under a dark cloud. Two decades later, the situation seems even graver: the culture wars are more intense and the left feels under not a cloud but an anvil. With the election of a new, deeply conservative pope, Urreas timing couldnt be better: his main char

40、acter, Teresita, is a saint as envisioned not in the marble reaches of the Vatican but in the populist pueblos of liberation theology, a Mexican saint of dust and blood, with lice in her hair and dirt under her fingernails. Poor, illegitimate, illiterate and despised, Teresita is the embodiment of t

41、he dictum that the last shall be first, and her ascension over the course of 500 pages is a myth that is also a charmingly written manifesto. Urrea, who was born in Tijuana to an American mother and a Mexican father, is the author of 10 previous books of nonfiction, fiction and poetry; the best know

42、n of these are probably The Devils Highway and Across the Wire, nonfiction accounts of hardscrabble lives on the Mexican-United States border. For The Hummingbirds Daughter, he reached back into his own family history, or what he calls a family folk tale. Teresa Urrea, known in the novel as Teresita

43、, was a distant relative and, as Urrea discovered, the subject of some earlier scholarship, an influential series of newspaper articles in the 1930s and at least one other novel. Urreas book re-imagines her story on a grand scale, as a mix of leftist hagiography, mystical bildungsroman and melanchol

44、ic national anthem. The half-Indian child of a wealthy Mexican landowner, Teresita, born in 1873 with a red triangle on her forehead, is also possessed of a supernatural gift for healing that becomes much stronger as she grows up, and stronger still after suffering a terrible assault that kills her.

45、 She rises from the dead and begins to perform miracles. The sick, the halt and the dying gather around her, and so do Mexican revolutionaries. Everything the government does, Teresita preaches to them, is morally wrong. This democratic groundswell inevitably results in a showdown with the Mexican a

46、uthorities. Teresitas endurance - and survival - are literally and spiritually linked to the struggles of Mexico itself, a struggle that Urrea sees firmly from the bottom up. God is a worker, like us, Huila, an aged curandera, instructs the young Teresita. He made the world - he didnt hire poor Indi

48、 highly influential. 10.BTEXT C/B Utopias are supposed to be dreams of the future. But the American Utopia Lately its a dream that was, a twilit memory of the Golden Age between V-J day and OPEC, when even a blue-collar paycheck bought a place in the middle class. The promise of paradise regained has become a key to the Democratic Party pitch. Mickey Kaus, a senior editor of the New Republic, says the Democrats are wasting their time. As the U. S. enters a world
