A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR: TIME and GOODREADS - A brave new collection
of poems from Sandra Cisneros, the best-selling author of The House on
Mango Street.
It has been twenty-eight years since Sandra Cisneros published a book of
poetry. With dozens of never-before-seen poems, Woman Without Shame is
a moving collection of songs, elegies, and declarations that chronicle
her pilgrimage toward rebirth and the recognition of her prerogative as
a woman artist. These bluntly honest and often humorous meditations on
memory, desire, and the essential nature of love blaze a path toward
self-awareness. For Cisneros, Woman Without Shame is the culmination
of her search for home**--**in the Mexico of her ancestors and in her
own heart.
