Paperback. Zustand: New. A generative, genre-bending collection of nineteen intertwined stories by legendary writer, theorist, and activist Gloria E. Anzaldúa.Finalist for the 2026 PROSE Award in the Literature CategoryHonorable Mention, 2025 Foreword INDIES Book of the Year Award in the LGBTQ+ Fiction categoryBest known for Borderlands/La Frontera: The New Mestiza (1987), Gloria E. Anzaldúa was also a prolific fiction writer. Prieta Is Dreaming, a speculative novel-in-stories, follows the precocious Prieta from her childhood in South Texas to college and beyond as she tries to find her way in the world. Imbued with supernatural powers, Prieta traverses time, changes form, explores her desires, and defies convention. Started in the 1970s and revised up until Anzaldúa's death in 2004, Prieta Is Dreaming comes as a revelation, affirming Anzaldúa's place at the forefront of contemporary feminist, queer, and border theory, while transforming what we think about both her writing and ourselves. In these nineteen intertwined stories, we find some of Anzaldúa's most adventurous, inspired ideas about gender, sexuality, and the very nature of existence-as well as a character, la Prieta, as bold and memorable as the book itself.…

Paperback. Zustand: New. Memoir typically places selfhood at the center. Interestingly, the genre's recent surge in popularity coincides with breakthroughs in scholarship focused on selfhood in a new way: as an always renewing, always emerging entity. Suzanne Bost draws on feminist and posthumanist ideas to explore how three contemporary memoirists decenter the self. Latinx writers John Rechy, Aurora Levins Morales, and Gloria E. Anzaldúa work in places where personal history intertwines with communities, environments, animals, plants, and spirits. This dedication to interconnectedness resonates with ideas in posthumanist theory while calling on indigenous worldviews. As Bost argues, our view of life itself expands if we look at how such frameworks interact with queer theory, disability studies, ecological thinking, and other fields. These webs of relation in turn mediate experience, agency, and lift itself.A transformative application of posthumanist ideas to Latinx, feminist, and literary studies, Shared Selves shows how memoir can encourage readers to think more broadly and deeply about what counts as human life.…

Paperback. Zustand: New. A collection of essays using Gloria Anzaldúa's archival works to further explore and reassess the meaning of her legacy.In the 1980s, Gloria Anzaldúa's pioneering Borderlands/La Frontera and This Bridge Called My Back created new and durable trajectories for feminist, queer, Latinx, and postcolonial thought. Still, much of her writing was never published. Drawing on Anzaldúa's impressive archive-manuscript drafts, personal memorabilia, correspondence, and drawings held at the Benson Collection at the University of Texas, Austin-this volume explores what we are still learning from a pathbreaking scholar more than twenty years after her death.Changing Our Minds with Gloria Anzaldúa gathers essays from eleven writers working in diverse fields, including philosophy, literature, geography, performance studies, and visual arts. All have been powerfully influenced by Anzaldúa, and after examining her archives, all came to know her work anew. Each chapter relates discoveries among the unpublished materials, illuminating Anzaldúa's celebrated texts and raising novel questions. A meditation, as well, on archivalism itself, Changing Our Minds reckons with the power of dusty papers to motivate new generations of readers outside the geographies and academic departments in which Anzaldúa has long been a fixture. …
