Caramelo es una vibrante novela multigeneracional que sigue a la familia Reyes en sus viajes anuales desde Chicago hasta la Ciudad de México. A través de los ojos de la joven Lala, la historia desentraña las verdades y las "sanas mentiras" que conforman el legado familiar, comparándolas con los hilos de un rebozo de caramelo. La narrativa de Sandra Cisneros transporta al lector desde el México de principios del siglo XX hasta las calles de Chicago en los años 20 y la vida en San Antonio, Texas. Es una obra que explora la identidad, la memoria y los lazos culturales con una prosa original y llena de vida.
Sandra Cisneros is an American writer. She is best known for her first novel, The House on Mango Street (1984), and her subsequent short story collection, Woman Hollering Creek and Other Stories (1991). Her work includes experimentation with emerging subject positions, which Cisneros attributes to growing up in a context of cultural hybridity and economic inequality that endowed her with unique stories to tell. She is the recipient of numerous awards, including a National Endowment for the Arts Fellowship, was awarded one of 25 new Ford Foundation Art of Change fellowships in 2017, and is regarded as a key figure in Chicano literature.
