Synopsis "Obras Reunidas Iii: Cronicas i: 3 (in Spanish)"

Este tercer volumen de las Obras reunidas integra parte del trabajo de Elena Poniatowsca como cronista. Como agudísima narradora, de su pluma fluyen las historias de Las siete cabritas o, como ella misma escribe, de las siete estrellas de la bóveda celeste: las artistas Frida Kahlo, Carmen Mondragón, María Izquierdo; las escritoras Nellie Campobello y Elena Garro, y las poetas Guadalupe Amor y Rosario Castellanos. Poniatowska logra difuminar la condición de mujer-artista para contemplarlas en una sola pieza; mujeres detrás de la poesía, los óleos y los círculos intelectuales son enfundadas en un sinnúmero de instantes y memorias. De igual forma, la figura del escultor Juan Soriano permite a Poniatowsca bosquejar la pléyade artística y literaria de mediados del siglo XX: Carlos Pellicer.

Elena Poniatowska (Paris, 1932), Mexican writer and journalist of French-Polish origin, arrived in Mexico at the age of nine fleeing World War II. After studying in a religious boarding school in the U.S., she began her career at the newspaper Excelsior and established herself as a key voice in journalism and Spanish literature. Founder of media outlets like La Jornada and magazines like Fem, she combined her literary work with social and feminist activism. Author of emblematic works such as La noche de Tlatelolco (chronicle of the 1968 student movement) and novels like Leonora (about Leonora Carrington), she has received awards such as the Cervantes (2013), the Alfaguara (2001), and the Rómulo Gallegos (2007). Her works span novels, essays, poetry, and children's literature, always with a commitment to justice and historical memory.
