Anzaldúa started writing fiction in the 70s and revised PRIETA up until her passing. I love the retro vibe of the cover. The collection includes an intro by the editors, a glossary/translations for each story written by Gloria (a rarity for her!), & appendices, incl draft pages from the archive.
It's up! It's up!

Quería escribir sobre la invención de la tortilla, pero después de hacer algunas entrevistas preferí escribir sobre quiénes hicieron por más de 2 mil años las tortillas. El nixtamal fue una franca esclavitud para las mujeres hasta el siglo XX. Les cuento por qué.
