[Linganth] ethnography suggestion?

[Rachel R Reynolds]

Dear All:

Each year, I teach a ling anth course that is about 15 non-majors and 10 
majors.  I adapt readings and assignments for the majors, but then it 
also necessitates finding good readings for the non-majors.

Does anyone know of a recent ethnography that is heavily linguistic or 
discourse oriented that is reasonably easy to read for someone with no 
or little anth background?  I have used Norma Mendoza Denton's 
_Homegirls_, and Wogan's _Magical Literacy is Salasaca_ before, but 
would like to find something "new."

Thanks for any suggestions.  I will share what I get, down the line...

Rachel
