Descripción
This anthology brings together twenty-one perspectives, feelings, and voices of women who have the center of America as their cultural homeland.
The narrators selected in this anthology are not the classic writers of the region, of whom they are surely heirs, but their vision of reality, art, and writing enriches and updates the panorama of Central American literature. Their stories evidence the complexity of the social, economic, political, and cultural landscape of the Isthmus, as well as their original aesthetic ability. All of them are women with the intuition to stick to their dreams, because they know that from them are born the necessary reasons to continue chronicling life. They share, day by day, the intensity, sharpness, and wonder of the inquiry into the human condition. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A collection of twenty-one works by women with roots at the very center of the Americas. The contributors selected for this anthology are not the region's classic authors, although they are undoubtedly influenced by their legacy, as their visions of reality, art, and the act of writing, expand and enrich the scope of Central American literature. Their voices reveal the complexity of the region's social, economic and cultural panorama, as well as its aesthetic originality. These are women determined to follow their dreams as the motivation to continue creating the chronicle of their lives. Collectively, their writings convey the intensity and surprise that come from exploring the human condition.
