    José Antonio Villareal"s Pocho is regarded as the first modern Chicano novel which reflects the author"s autobiographical experience as a Mexican-American second generation. Pocho describes the life of Juan Rubio, a Mexican migrant worker who settled in Santa Clara, California, and focuses on the identity problem of his son, 9-year-old Richard Rubio. It deals with the issues of bilingualism, biculturalism, and dual identity that Richard Rubio faces in the racialized society because he is a stranger, neither American nor Mexican. In fact, Villareal has been criticized severely by many Chicano critics for being too assimilated in American society. However, Pocho can suggest a new reading in the transnational era where the boundaries of nations, ethnics, and races are blurred. This paper attempts to explore Richard"s struggle to find his own identity as a transnational subject, not a stranger who dose not belong to either of them, in that he resists the dichotomous violence between Americanness and Mexicanness. It examines the meaning of Chicano Spanish with regard to the creation of his transnational identity. In addition, it seeks to understand the lives of Chicano migrants, who are excluded from American history and monolingualism, with a more balanced transnational literacy.
