Latinas Write the New York City Diaspora

Latin American and U.S. Latina women writers have been migrating to New York City since the late nineteenth century in search of freedom of expression, cultural networks, publishing houses, and artistic venues. This essay presents an overview of the major artistic and theoretical contributions of U.S. Latina writing in New York City in the first decade of the twenty-first century. Expanding the work of earlier generations of Latinas, they explore a range of topics including Latina identity, sexuality, family, transnational migration, and politics.
