Isabel Allende’s The Soul of a Woman will give readers the same feeling as enjoying a warm cup of tea and a good conversation with an aunt or grandmother. Within its pages, Allende writes beautifully about motherhood, love, sensuality, aging, her career, and violence against girls and women, making this memoir an easy but worthwhile read for all.
In her debut novel, Of Women and Salt, Gabriela Garcia tells the story of Jeanette, daughter of Cuban immigrants and a recovering addict, as well as her mother, Carmen, and her neighbor, Ana, who returns home one to find her own mother has been deported. Written in beautiful, fluid prose, this novel offers a unique and nuanced perspective of various themes through an innovative narrative structure.
