Details
by Rosie Carbó (Author)
Maria Antonia y sus retoños: Legacies of Motherhood unravels the complex, often turbulent bonds between generations of a Mexican American family. At its heart is Maria Antonia Menchaca, a woman forged by revolution, migration, and sacrifice, whose resilience collides with the defiance and ambitions of her children. As she struggles for autonomy, family tensions flare-loyalty battles with betrayal, survival with dignity. Through hardship, exile, and fractured relationships, her legacy endures: a mother's strength, wisdom, and unyielding will.
PRAISE FOR Maria Antonia y sus retoños: Legacies of Motherhood
"Maria Antonia's life is anything but ordinary. In her quest to live reasonably, her unrelinquished dignity and compassion reminds us that in the creases of 'uelita's wrinkles are mapped the stories of hard-won victories and mistakes, cares remembered and forgotten, and, most importantly, the spirit of tenacity that crafts a lifetime."
-Roberta Hurtado, Ph.d.
