Paperback. Condizione: Good. The first study to foreground writing by women who live at the U.S.-Mexico Border.It is a peculiar fact that U.S.-Mexico border theory is dominated by those who write about, not from, the border. By looking at the work of women writers from both sides of the border, Debra A. Castillo and MarÍa-Socorro Tabuenca CÓrdoba open border studies to a truly transnational analysis while bringing questions of gender to the fore.Border Women rethinks border theory by emphasizing women writers whose work-in Spanish, English, or a mixture of the two languages-calls into question accepted notions of border identities. These writers include those who are already well recognized internationally (Helena MarÍa Viramontes, Sheila and Sandra Ortiz Taylor, and MarÍa Novaro); those who have become part of the Chicano canon (Norma CantÚ, Alicia Gaspar de Alba, and Demetria MartÍnez); along with some of the lesser-known, yet most exciting, women?s voices from the Mexican border (Rosario Sanmiguel, Rosina Conde, and Regina Swain). …

Soft cover. Condizione: As New. 1st Edition. Book is in excellent condition. Spine tight with no creases. Pages clean and unmarked. The figure of the prostitute or sexually liberated woman not only permeates Mexican folk songs and popular movies but stands at the crossroads of its national literary culture. In Easy Women, Debra A. Castillo focuses on the prostitute, or the woman perceived as such, in order to ask why this character exerts such a hold on the Mexican imagination. Combining early twentieth-century novels, current best-selling pulp fiction, and testimonial narratives, Castillo explores how Mexican writers have positioned the "easy woman" in their works. In each example the transgressive woman—marked by an active sexuality—serves a crucial narrative function, one that both promotes and challenges myths about women on the continuum of sexual promiscuity. Ending with a discussion based on a series of in-depth interviews with sex workers in Tijuana, Castillo highlights the complexities and ambiguities of these women's professional and personal lives. As opposed to a traditional view of these women as symbols of evil or metaphors of contagion, Castillo gives voice and agency to the silenced figure of the "easy woman," unsettling conventional notions and opening up a freer space within which gender and sexuality can be rethought.Bridging Latin American literary and cultural criticism, gender studies, and studies of Mexican society, Easy Women provides a sophisticated and groundbreaking examination of the place of the sexually liberated woman in contemporary Mexican culture.…
