Count on Me: Tales of Sisterhoods and Fierce Friendships
Autor Las Comadres Para Las Americas Editat de Adriana V. Lopezen Limba Engleză Paperback – 3 sep 2012
Friendships can bring us peace, fill the emotional shortcomings in our romantic relationships, and help us remember what lies deep inside every one of us. For more than twelve years, the international organization Las Comadres Para Las Americas has been bringing together thousands of Latinas to count on, lean on, help, and advise one another. "Comadre "is a powerful term. It encompasses the most important relationships that exist between women: best friends, confidants, coworkers, advisers, neighbors, godmothers to one s children, and even midwives.
Edited by acclaimed author and editor Adriana V. Lopez, this collection of stories features twelve prominent Latino authors who reveal how friendships have helped them to overcome difficult moments in their lives. Fabiola Santiago, Luis Alberto Urrea, Reyna Grande, and Teresa Rodriguez tell their stories of survival in the United States and in Latin America, where success would have been impossible without a friend s support. Esmeralda Santiago, Lorraine Lopez, Carolina De Robertis, Daisy Martinez, and Dr. Ana Nogales explore what it means to have a comadre help you through years of struggle and self-discovery. And authors Sofia Quintero, Stephanie Elizondo Griest, and Michelle Herrera Mulligan look at the powerful impact of the humor and humanity that their comadres brought to each one s life, even in the darkest moments."
