Conoce + 4 novelas bien latinas<br />

By/Por: Julio Enriquez<br />

1. La primera sugerencia es de Víctor Villaseñor,<br />

este escritor mexico-mericano escribe Macho.<br />

Una gran historia de cómo un joven mexicano se<br />

inmigra a los Estados Unidos después de la<br />

muerte de su padre y aprende el significado de<br />

macho.<br />

2. La novela, Under the Feet of Jesus de Helena<br />

Viramontes narra la historia de una familia<br />

mexico-americana que sigue la corrida de<br />

cosecha en California. La novela se cuenta<br />

desde el punto de vista de Estrella. Esta novela<br />

parece estar consiente de las novelas de John<br />

Steinbeck ya que habla del campesino.<br />

3. La tercera sugerencia es la ya traducida<br />

novela, La casa en Mango Street de Sandra<br />

Cisneros. Esta novela también cuenta la historia<br />

de una familia mexico-americana que vive en la<br />

ciudad de Chicago. Aquí entramos a la aventura<br />

de descubrimiento de Esperanza.<br />

4. La novela Soñar en cubano de Cristina García<br />

originalmente escrita en inglés toma cuenta de<br />

la diferencia y tensión cultural entre<br />

generaciones de hermanas de lo cual surge de<br />

su aproximación tan diferente al turbulento<br />

pasado familiar y nacional en Cuba.<br />

1. The first suggestion is from Victor Villaseñor,<br />

this Mexican-American author writes Macho. The<br />

story of how a young Mexican immigrates to the<br />

United States after the death of his father. In<br />

this new land learns what it means to be macho.<br />

2. The novel, Under the Feet of Jesus by Helena<br />

Viramontes tells the story of a Mexican-American<br />

family who follows the harvest in California. The<br />

novel reveals the struggles from the point of<br />

view of Estrella. This novel seems to be aware of<br />

John Steinbeck’s novels as it also tells the story<br />

of the fieldworker.<br />

3. The third suggestion an already translated<br />

novel, The House on Mango Street by Sandra<br />

Cisneros also tells the story of a<br />

Mexican-American family living in Chicago.<br />

Here we embark upon Esperanza’s journey of<br />

self-discovery.<br />

4. The novel Dreaming in Cuban by Cristina<br />

García is originally written in English and tells<br />

about the cultural differences and tensions<br />

between generations of Cuban sisters, since<br />

they all understand their troubled family and<br />

national past in Cuba differently.<br />

“Un bolígrafo y un papel, son una de las armas mas ponderosas”<br />

“A pen and paper, are one of the most powerful weapons”<br />
