Guatemalan women speak

the long version

"Interviews with more than 40 Guatemalan women in the late 1980s, all but two in Spanish (even though they were mostly ethnically indigenous). Notes that most successful interviews came when the subject herself 'directed' the process. Their voices tell a series of clear 'short stories' on wide array of themes, roughly grouped together under the headings of work, being Indian, family, and resistance"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.
