- Samenvatting
- This anthology focuses exclusively on queer readings of Spanish, Latin American, and U.S. Latina lesbian literature and culture. It interrogates issues of gender, national identity, race, ethnicity, and class to show the impossibility of projecting a singular Hispanic or Latina lesbian. Examining the works of a range of lesbian writers and performance artists, including Carmelita Tropicana and Cristina Peri Rossi, among others, Tortilleras creates a picture of the complicated and multi-textured contributions of Latina and Hispanic lesbians to literature and culture.
