«Las chicas desobedientes» is the poetry collection by Marjorie Agosín, published by Ediciones Torremozas in paperback (64 pages, in Spanish).
Poems that place women at crossroads of life or death and portray the craft of being a woman from a raw reality, with an enveloping tenderness. The poetic voice, concise and cutting, integrates historical and ethnic dimensions —such as the death of the last Yámana— and sustains an accusatory and vindictive tone.
Published in 1997, the book belongs to the Torremozas Collection (number 129) and its ISBN is 84-7839-193-2.
For readers of contemporary poetry interested in Latin American literature and in women's writing with a vindictive tone.
