Kelsey Ford: Powell's Picks Spotlight: Kelly Link's 'White Cat, Black Dog' (0 comment)
I vividly remember the night I was first introduced to Kelly Link’s work. I was 18 — young and dumb and wildly shy, living across the country from where I grew up. In Link’s new book, there’s a line that goes “Like the werewolf, we are uneasy in human spaces and human company...

Publisher Comments

Cuando Malinalli conoce a Hernand#225;n Cortand#233;s, asume que se trata del propio Dios Quetzalcand#243;atl que regresa a liberar a su pueblo. Los dos se enamoran apasionadamente, pero este amor pronto es destruido por la desmedida sed de conquista, poder y riqueza de Cortand#233;s. andlt;BRandgt; andlt;BRandgt; A lo largo de la historia de Mand#233;xico Malinalli/Malinche ha sido conocida por su traiciand#243;n al pueblo indio. Pero recientes investigaciones histand#243;ricas han demostrado que Malinalli fue la mediadora entre dos culturas, la hispand#225;nica y la indand#237;gena; y entre dos lenguas, el espaand#241;ol y el nand#225;huatl. andlt;BRandgt; andlt;BRandgt; Lo que Esquivel ha hecho en esta novela es desafiar la mitologand#237;a tradicional mediante un retrato muy temperamental del Adand#225;n y la Eva de la cultura mestiza, Cortand#233;s y Malinalli, con la caand#237;da del imperio azteca como teland#243;n de fondo. Contada con el lirismo de la tradiciand#243;n cantarina y pictand#243;rica del nand#225;huatl, Laura Esquivel nos brinda un mito fundacional de la cultura hand#237;brida del Nuevo Mundo y una extraordinaria historia de amor.
