The first English-language gathering of the voices of Mexican women, most of whom began to publish in the 1960s, when an emerging middle class supported a boom in Mexican letters. Well-known writers such as Elena Poniatowska and Rosario Castellanos, and writers just beginning to receive critical acclaim, tell diverse stories of Mexico's women, from La Malinche up to present-day women trying to find their places in a country with a strong patriarchal tradition.
