Reviews
this text certainly fulfils the remit of the series in that it consists of innovative and challenging work in the important field of Latin American feminist literary criticism ... It is a valuable addition to the growing number of studies which engage with the relationship between theory, experience and politics ... it is certainly to be recommended for those engaged in postgraduate study in the field and will no doubt be of interest to those working in gender theory within Hispanic Studies * Vanessa Knights, University of Newcastle-Upon-Tyne *
Jones and Davies's anthology explores feminist discourses forged at the intersection of theory and crisis... While all of the essays raise issues of significance to feminist theorists, the pieces on some of the less canonical writers are especially compelling... Jones and Davies's anthology enriches the ongoing debates about the role of feminist critical theory in Latin American studies. * Barbara J. Risman, Signs *
By the time this review is published, institutional libraries and individuals with a particular interest in Latin-American Feminist studies will already have purchased this volume, recognizing it as an indispensible one. Anny Brooksbank Jones and Catherine Davies are to be most warmly congratulated on what is in every way (including, in passing the translations done by the two editors) an admirable, polished and truly intelligent collaborative venture from which students and specialists alike will derive stimulus for years to come. - Verity Smith - Bulletin of Hispanic Studies No 3. July 1999
