The Other Mirror

Meer over het boek

Focusing on the rise of women's narrative in Mexican literature, this collection of essays examines the works of nine contemporary female writers, including notable figures like Laura Esquivel. It highlights the commercial success of their novels, which has sparked debates about the status of women's writing in academia and the desire of some authors to distance themselves from this label. The essays provide critical insights into these dynamics, making a significant contribution to the understanding of women's narrative in the literary landscape.
