Alvares, Victoria Elise

"Para Las Latinas is a collection of short stories told in multiple perspectives on the themes of identity, womanhood, misogyny, and culture. My experimentation with point-of-view in this collection ranges from second, roving third, and omniscient to gain a deeper sense of characters, plot, and societal commentary. The collection challenges the reader to enter worlds they are uncomfortable or unfamiliar with through bilingualism, relationship dynamics, and setting." -- Abstract
