Luke (korrick) | 2004 comments Rituals of Survival: A Woman's Portfolio, Nicholasa Mohr, 1985, United States, SHORT STORIES

"...The short stories in this collection, set in present-day New York City, describe the lives of six Puerto Rican women without bitterness, but not without anger....Nicholasa Mohr shows each woman's resolve in the face of often difficult circumstances, and while each of these stories are unique, they are also universal in the ways they open our eyes to the many forms that strength needed to survive can take."

(H.S., p. 88)
