Rodenas Adriana M
Gender and Nationalism in Colonial Cuba : The Travels of Santa Cruz y Montalvo Condesa de Merlin
Nashville TN U.S.A.: Vanderbilt University Press 1998. 317 pages. B/w illustrations. Index. Maria de las Mercedes Santa Cruz y Montalvo better known as la Condesa de Merlin 1789-1852 is arguably one of Cuba's most engaging authors; yet until now her works have gone largely ignored. From the viewpoint of feminist and psychoanalytical theory. Explores the many ways in which issues of gender have contributed to Merlin's virtual absence from the canons of literature and from the discourses on Cuban national identity. Merlin's double identity as both Cuban and French is symbolic of the Cuban exiled condition a fact taken up by contemporary exiled Cuban writers who see the countess as an alter-ego. Mendez Rodenas seeks to restore Merlin as the first woman writer in Cuban literary history to articulate a sense of national identity as well as being Cuba's first female historian. She focuses on Merlin's travel writings because they examine such issues as slavery independence nationhood the role of women education and local literature. Together her writings construct an alternative gendered history of nineteenth-century Cuba that must be acknowledged as both functional and authentic. 1st Printing. Cloth. Near Fine/Near Fine. 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. Vanderbilt University Press hardcover

Rodriguez Deborah And Ohlson Kristin
Kabul Beauty School: An American Woman Goes Behind the Veil
New York: Random House. As New. 2007. 1st Edition. Trade Paperback. Full number line 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1. . 320 pages. Soon after the fall of the Taliban in 2001 Deborah Rodriguez went to Afghanistan as part of a group offering humanitarian aid to this war-torn nation. Surrounded by men and women whose skills�as doctors nurses and therapists�seemed eminently more practical than her own Rodriguez a hairdresser and mother of two from Michigan despaired of being of any real use. Yet she soon found she had a gift for befriending Afghans and once her profession became known she was eagerly sought out by Westerners desperate for a good haircut and by Afghan women who have a long and proud tradition of running their own beauty salons. Thus an idea was born. <br><br>With the help of corporate and international sponsors the Kabul Beauty School welcomed its first class in 2003. Well meaning but sometimes brazen Rodriguez stumbled through language barriers overstepped cultural customs and constantly juggled the challenges of a postwar nation even as she learned how to empower her students to become their families� breadwinners by learning the fundamentals of coloring techniques haircutting and makeup. Yet within the small haven of the beauty school the line between teacher and student quickly blurred as these vibrant women shared with Rodriguez their stories and their hearts: the newlywed who faked her virginity on her wedding night the twelve-year-old bride sold into marriage to pay her family�s debts the Taliban member�s wife who pursued her training despite her husband�s constant beatings. Through these and other stories Rodriguez found the strength to leave her own unhealthy marriage and allow herself to love again Afghan style. With warmth and humor Rodriguez details the lushness of a seemingly desolate region and reveals the magnificence behind the burqa. <i>Kabul Beauty School </i>is a remarkable tale of an extraordinary community of women who come together and learn the arts of perms friendship and freedom. .
