Book synopsis

"No book before Lorna Dee Cervantes' "Emplumada" has so completely and sharply drawn the East Bay and San Jose, California experience with full justice. No book has so successfully made the Californian urban and rural worlds of unfinished freeways and 'spinached specked shoes' of cannery workers come alive. No book has so carefully elucidated what living as a Chicana in the West means, and how 'an intelligent, well-read person could believe in the war between races.' "Emplumada" offers a number of troubled and delicated portrait of a woman's world and how that antipatriarchal world has come to have meaning." "--Revista Chicano-Riquena"
