Description
Each and every woman tells her own life story, and interspersed with recollections of childhood, marriage, and childrearing are revealing accounts of El Salvador’s turbulent political past and present. Reflected within the stories are the vast changes in educational and occupational opportunities for women and the shifts in male-female relationships. Class differences are still a fundamental a part of Salvadoran life, but changes are occurring on this area as well.
From Grandmother to Granddaughter is a vivid and authentic portrait of nowadays’s El Salvador that convincingly illustrates how individual lives can reflect the bigger changes within a society.
