Muchos elementos hacen de esta obra un trabajo de gran interes. El primero de ellos es que nos permite asomarnos a la historia de la Orden fundada por Teresa de Jesus, y a la misma historia de la Iglesia -en una epoca tan condicionante como es la contrarreformista- desde una perspectiva femenina, dejando hablar a las protagonistas. Mas aun, acercandonos a la voz de su intimidad, recogiendo palabras privadas, como son las de la mayoria de las cartas. - Maria Jose Perez Gonzalez
