Review # 1 was written on 2012-07-06 00:00:00 Linda Williams Don't really know how to write a review. Forgive me if I do this wrong. All I can really say, as an American Asian-Chicana Latina who has questioned everything in her life...probably more than once, Cherrie Moraga validated me. |
Review # 2 was written on 2011-10-24 00:00:00 Nicola Sicilia A highly politicized and propagandistic novel that includes indifferent poetry. The quasi-surrealistic story line posits that life for a Mexican-American lesbian amounts to life during a war; a proposition that anyone who has ever been in a war will find highly questionable. Granted that she uses the word war metaphorically, it still seems a grandiosely self-inflated description of her conflict with a homophobic mother (and culture). The use of postmodern literary techniques is gimmicky, the characters are flat and created in service of ideology, and the tone angry and resentful in an unjustified and unexplained fashion. I would not recommend this puerile piece of fiction to anyone who wishes to enjoy or learn from fiction. |
