| Summary | "Viaje a los Estados Unidos, Tomo II" by Guillermo Prieto is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The narrative follows the experiences and observations of the author as he travels through various American cities, particularly New Orleans, reflecting on the contrasts between cultures and the evolution of society during his time. With a combination of personal anecdotes and social commentary, the book provides insights into the lives of the people he encounters, touching on themes of identity, change, and the complexity of cultural interactions. The opening of the book introduces the author's initial experiences as he arrives in New Orleans, grappling with feelings of nostalgia and loss as he compares his current surroundings to his former home in San Francisco. Describing the oppressive atmosphere of his lodging and the chaotic nature of the city, Prieto's vivid imagery conveys a sense of alienation and adventure. He muses on the neighborhood's blending of cultures, noting the delightful chaos of the streets and the various nationalities present. His tone is both humorous and reflective, setting the stage for a journey filled with personal encounters and broader cultural explorations as he navigates through the city and prepares for upcoming visits with friends and acquaintances.
