Read the excerpt from “First Generation” of Dreaming in Cuban. She considers the vagaries of sports, the happenstance of El Líder, a star pitcher in his youth, narrowly missing a baseball career in America. His wicked curveball attracted the major league scouts, and the Washington Senators were interested in signing him but changed their minds. Frustrated, El Líder went home, rested his pitching arm, and started a revolution in the mountains. Read the excerpt from “Like Mexicans.” We talked for an hour and had apple pie and coffee, slowly. Finally, we got up with Carolyn taking my hand. Slightly embarrassed, I tried to pull away but her grip held me. I let her have her way as she led me down the hallway with her mother right behind me. . . . Carolyn waved again. I looked, back, waving. . . . Her people were like Mexicans, only different.

They are similar insofar that they use the same tenses, that is the past simple tense, and short clear sentences that tell of a story in the past. The style is simple with few adjectives and not that many clauses or phrases. This kind of a style was made popular by Ernest Hemingway, but others wrote like it too, like the paragraphs here.
