Following Aurora Levins Morales's alternative historical methodology she calls \"curandera history,\" this work analyzes the literary work of authors, including Aurora Levins Morales, Nicholasa Mohr, Esmeralda Santiago, and Judith Ortiz Cofer, and the ways they create medicinal histories that not only document the experiences of migrant women but also heal the trauma of their erasure from mainstream national history. Each analytical chapter focuses on the various methods used by each author including using the literary space as an archive, reclaiming memory, and (re)writing cultural history, all through a feminist lens that centers the voices and experiences of Puerto Rican women.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Elizabeth Garcia\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 082296564X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780822965640\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Pittsburgh Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/01\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.90h x 5.90w x 0.60d","brand":"Elizabeth Garcia","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45265006330111,"sku":"9780822965640","price":32.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_33e2c8a1-4215-4314-a385-76b61848f924.jpg?v=1713419880","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/healing-memories-elizabeth-garcia-9780822965640","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
