«Mujer inacabada» is Lillian Hellman's autobiography, published in paperback (100 pages, in Spanish).
Lillian Hellman, a playwright critical of her society's hypocrisy and a portraitist of the American Southern woman, reviews in these memoirs her life and political commitment: she supported causes such as the Spanish Civil War and opposed McCarthy's «witch hunt».
The work was originally published in 1969 as «An Unfinished Woman: A Memoir»; with it Hellman won the National Book Award in 1970.
For readers of memoirs and biographies interested in theater, politics, and twentieth-century American society.
Lillian Florence Hellman was an American playwright, prose writer, memoirist, and screenwriter known for her success on Broadway as well as her communist views and political activism. She was blacklisted after her appearance before the House Committee on Un-American Activities (HUAC) at the height of the anti-communist campaigns of 1947–1952. Although she continued to work on Broadway in the 1950s, her blacklisting by the U.S. film industry caused a drop in her income. Many praised Hellman for refusing to answer HUAC's questions, but others believed, despite her denial, that she had belonged to the Communist Party.
