Overview
Ā
Ā«Si de unos aƱos para acĆ” estamos releyendo la historia literaria con nuevos ojos, habrĆa que releer estas novelas con esos mismos, para darles su justo lugar en la obra de Garro y en la literatura de su tiempo, lejos de los prejuicios que las circundan. Si Garro estĆ” llegando a las manos de mĆ”s y mĆ”s personas, quizĆ”s estas novelas por fin dejen de ser un apĆ©ndice de su obra y pasen a ser disfrutadas y apreciadas por lectoras y lectores frecuentes y esporĆ”dicos, por gusto propio y por asignatura, en MĆ©xico entero y en el mundo.Ā» āDel prĆ³logo de Jazmina Barrera
Ā
Ā«AsĆ como resulta errĆ³neo acercarse a la producciĆ³n literaria de Elena Garro desde la perspectiva del realismo mĆ”gico, es necesario leer y releer estas novelas bajo la Ć³ptica de una mujer, de una escritora, cuyo interĆ©s por la bĆŗsqueda de diversas formas de expresiĆ³n literaria asume sus riesgos y la mayorĆa de las veces resulta lo suficientemente bien lograda como para ofrecer una de las escrituras mĆ”s originales, autĆ©nticas e inimitables de la literatura hispĆ”nica de todos los tiempos.Ā» āDe la nota del editor Ćlvaro Ćlvarez Delgado

Ā«If for years now weāve been rereading the history of literature with new eyes, we should reread these novels with those same eyes, to give them their rightful place in Garros universe and in the literature of her time, far from the prejudices around them. If Garro is arriving to the hands of more and more people, perhaps these novels can no longer be an appendix of her work and will be enjoyed and appreciated by frequent and occasional readers, whether for their pleasure or as a pending subject, in Mexico and in the whole world. Ā» āFrom Jazmina Barrera's Prologue
Ā
Ā«Just as it is wrong to approach the literary production of Elena Garro from the perspective of magical realism, it is necessary to read and reread these novels from the point of view of a woman, a writer, whose interest in the search for various forms of literary expression assumes its risks and, most of the time, a risk well enough achieved to offer one of the most original, authentic and inimitable writings of the Hispanic Literature of all time.Ā» āFrom Ćlvaro Ćlvarez Delgado Editor's Note
