Daughters of Latin America

“A significant collection of Latine women voices across five centuries.… Guzmán succeeds in her presentation of ‘a luminous universe of texts that navigate across time and space, genre, styles, and traditions,’ and the book does indeed contain ‘the wisdom, memory, and DNA, or oral traditions more ancient than time itself.‘… A fresh, indispensable look at the wide, multicultural world of Latine women writers.” — Kirkus Reviews (starred review)“Full of heart and wisdom, Daughters of Latin America sheds a brilliant light on Latine and Caribbean women writers across time, space, languages, and genres.” — World Literature Today”The brilliance is abundant in this collection.” — The Latinx Project, New York University
