A Necklace of Words : Short Fiction by Mexican Women Paperback / softback

Edited by Isabel Allende, Nancy Abraham Hall

Part of the Secret Weavers Series series

Paperback / softback

Description

The first English-language gathering of the voices of Mexican women, most of whom began to publish in the 1960s, when an emerging middle class supported a boom in Mexican letters.

Well-known writers such as Elena Poniatowska and Rosario Castellanos, and writers just beginning to receive critical acclaim, tell diverse stories of Mexico's women, from La Malinche up to present-day women trying to find their places in a country with a strong patriarchal tradition.
