Braided Sorrow
by Marisela Treviño Orta
Drawing on both poetic and naturalistic techniques BRAIDED SORROW tells the story of a young girl, Alma, who comes to Juarez, Mexico to find work, but instead becomes enmeshed in the series of lethal traps awaiting young female workers for which that city is now infamous.
BRAIDED SORROW draws a parallel between the conquest of the Americas and the impact of economic policies of the United States.
