This reader--which provides a representative sample of the poetry, prose, fiction, and experimental autobiographical writing that Anzald俉 produced during her thirty-year career--demonstrates the breadth and philosophical depth of her work. While the reader contains much of Anzald俉's published writing (including several pieces now out of print), more than half the material has never before been published. This newly available work offers fresh insights into crucial aspects of Anzald俉's life and career, including her upbringing, education, teaching experiences, writing practice and aesthetics, lifelong health struggles, and interest in visual art, as well as her theories of disability, multiculturalism, pedagogy, and spiritual activism. The pieces are arranged chronologically; each one is preceded by a brief introduction. The collection includes a glossary of Anzald俉's key terms and concepts, a timeline of her life, primary and secondary bibliographies, and a detailed index.
Gloria Anzald俉 (1942-2004) was a visionary writer whose work was recognized with many honors, including the Before Columbus Foundation American Book Award, a Lambda literary award, the National Endowment for the Arts Fiction Award, and the Bode-Pearson Prize for Outstanding Contributions to American Studies. Her book Borderlands/La frontera was selected as one of the 100 Best Books of the Century by Hungry Mind Review and the Utne Reader.
