Summary
An epic tale of a Mexican-American girl's journey into womanhood and independence on both sides of the border. The sole novel of beloved Chicana author Estela Portillo Trambley is an important rediscovery. This classic Mexican-American coming-of-age story was written in the 1980s during the rich burgeoning of Latino literature that also brought us such writers as Sandra Cisneros and Denise Chavez. The novel is the captivating story of Trini, a girl born in the rural Tarahumaran region of Mexico, who loses her mother at an early age and shares her family's struggle to squeeze a living out of her beautiful but inhospitable land. Trini is a vital novel of the Mexican-American experience, appropriate for young adults as well as adult readers.
