By turns “defiant, satirically hilarious, sexy, and wise” (Booklist), Ana Castillo is one of the preeminent voices of the Chicana experience. Vibrantly experimental in style, she explores themes of feminism, oppression, and classism in a vast array of works, including several collections of poetry and many novels, including Peel My Love Like an Onion, The Guardians, and So Far From God. Castillo is also a prolific short story writer, essayist, playwright, editor and literary translator. Give it to Me tells the story of a recent 40-something divorcée who finds adventure with her gangster younger cousin.

GIRLS WRITE NOW Ana Castillo Keynote, May 30th New York City

New York’s First & Only Writing & Mentoring Program for Girls

WOMEN INSPIRING WOMEN


http://www.girlswritenow.org/event/ch...


If only an organization like Girls Write Now existed in Chicago when I was in my late teens writing alone. It felt like I was putting a message in a bottle. Decades later the bottle was found by this wonderful endeavor and the message has proliferated. The more voices of young women of color that are heard the brighter the path for everyone. –Ana Castillo
