TALKING WHILE FEMALE & OTHER DANGEROUS ACTS

This collection of introspective essays is read by a talented ensemble of female voices who come together to create a picture of contemporary Latina women. Listeners who enjoy female-focused projects will find much to admire as the essays explore young women who must make tough decisions. From confronting a sexual abuser in the family--only to be dismissed--to continuing with an unexpected pregnancy, the choices described in these diverse works bring their writers' experiences as close as the confidence of a good friend. You can listen to them all at once or dip in and out of the narratives over a series of sittings while mulling over the dilemmas. Many of these experiences are universal to growing up and will resonate with listeners. M.R. © AudioFile 2019, Portland, Maine [Published: JULY 2019]
