Title: Beyond the Border
Review: Beyond the border which was edited by Nora Erro-Peralta and Caridad Silva was a fantastic book. This book has various short stories in it that were based around the lives of Latin American women. These short stories helped me better understand what some of the women in Latin America have to deal with on a day to day basis. Although the stories are fiction, I know that they probably shadow the lives of women in Latin America. These stories have all sort of themes and symbolism in them that help the reader breakdown the true meaning to the story. Some of the themes include; patriarchy, materialism, and motherhood. Out of the six stories that I have read, these themes have come up in just about every story. I found this book very interesting and I would be very interested in reading some of the other works that the authors of the stories have written.
