VISIT BLOG: YELLOW PAPAYA

Yellow Papaya is dedicated to publishing articles that review literature - poetry, short stories, essays - written mostly by Chicanas. The Yellow Papaya style stems from my personal blog, and even though I maintain a scholarly voice throughout the content or material, the voice is personal and genuine. This is the first of a series of articles that addresses the works of the authors and artists of the two books.
