Meer over het boek

Paulette A. Ramsay and Anne-Mari­a Bankay have made a truly invaluable contribution by translating this novel -making it available to English-speaking audiences in the Caribbean and beyond. Chiriboga deserves to be read more widely. An important Afro-Latin American novelist, she addresses difficult and even controversial issues within a framework that poignantly illuminates how the dynamics of race, class, gender and sexuality affect black women's lives. - Faye V. Harrison, Director of the African American Studies Program, Professor of African American Studies & Anthropology
