Book Synopsis Chicana Portraits by : Norma Elia Cantú
Book excerpt: This innovative collection details critical biographies of twelve key Chicana writers, offering an engaging look at their work, contributions to the field, and major achievements. Portraits of the authors are each examined by a noted scholar, who delves deep into the authors' lives for details that inform their literary, artistic, feminist, and political trajectories and sensibilities. What results is a brilliant intersection of visual and literary arts that explores themes of sexism and misogyny, the fragility of life, Chicana agency, and more.
