Reviews

The author enhances his discussion of her fiction with historical case studies of abused women from the time during which Zayas lived and wrote. This archival material . . . is a welcome addition to the consideration of Zayas's stories and reflects her complexity."" - Marina Brownlee, Robert Schirmer Professor of Spanish and Portuguese Languages and Cultures and Comparative Literature, Princeton University, author of The Cultural Labyrinth of María de Zayas
