In State of Resistance: The Recent Women’s Hispanic-American Narrative

Abstract

The world is living times of social and political unrest and the feminist demands have gained strength and vigour in different spheres of life, including the literary and cultural world. This article echoes this moment and explores the female authorial constructions, from concepts as communalism (according to the ideas of Cristina Rivera Garza), sisterhood and genealogy. To that end, the article gathers some proposals from the anthologiesTsunami —name under which the publishing house Sexto Piso published in México (2018 and 2020) and then in Spain (2019) the three compilations— and Avisa cuando llegues (2018), Chilean anthology that compiles writings related to the proliferation of women on the public space.
