	Sweet Promised Land Robert Laxalt
		Sweet Promised Land (1957)(1), the first and possibly best-known of Robert Laxalt’s books, appears to be a personal and rather simple story about the journey of the author’s father, Dominique, to his Basque homeland after forty-seven years as an immigrant sheepherder in the American West.
		Although Sweet Promised Land emphasizes primarily the challenges that immigrants must face in America and their often fruitless attempts to recapture the past, it also explores the main reasons that lie behind their decision to seek their future in America.
		Nevertheless, Sweet Promised Land also describes the decline of America as a land of opportunity since the mid-century, particularly for new groups of immigrants like the Puerto Ricans, who are shown leaving for Brazil in search of another America.

	Overview of the Promised Land
		Palestinian identity is rooted in the land, and that land is so scarce it is measured by the quarter-acre the dunum.
		But when land is turned over to an Israeli, Israeli government regards it as a part of Israel, which means that with each dunum sold, the hope of independence diminishes.
		The Israelis from the beginning have equated possession of land with sovereignty, which is why they obliterated hundreds of Arab villages and drove nearly a million Palestinians from their homes in the course of establishing the present state.

		Keramos is where Delanna Milleflores's mother lived and died, spending her dissatisfied, angry life complaining about the backwater ignorance of the people around her.
		Its ownership and inheritance laws -- the same ones that apparently tied her mother to the land she so hated -- demand that Delanna take up immediate residency on her land or forfeit it.
		The laws forbid her from selling it for a year, proscribe who she can sell it to...and stipulate that she's now married to her neighbor Sonny Tanner, a boy she hasn't seen since she was a child.

		For if it is true that America seems increasingly on the verge of reneging on its promises to its immigrants, it is also true that the terms of that promise are not nearly as clear as they once were.
		To conceptualize the immigrant dreams and civic promises of earlier in this century, one can look at the path of Jewish American immigrant assimilation, which reached its statistical peak in 1907.
		Jen's novel might be seen as an end-of-the century status report on the Jewish immigrant experience that Pankower anticipates with apprehension; more broadly, the novel illustrates the sea change between the immigrant dreams of the past and the immigrant dreams of the present.
