The essays in A Recipe for Discourse: Perspectives on Like Water for Chocolate represent the novel?s problematic nature in their many diverse approaches, perspectives that are certain to awaken in the reader new ways of approaching the text while challenging old ones. This volume?s ?dialogue? format, in which essays are grouped thematically, is particularly effective in presenting such a diverse range of viewpoints. The reader will find herein lively discussion on LWFC as it relates to such themes as gastronomy, superstition, mythology, folklore, the Mexican Revolution, magical realism, female identity, alteration, and matriarchy/ patriarchy. It is the editor?s hope that a diverse readership, from undergraduate students to seasoned scholars, will find this volume engaging and enlightening. 410 0$aGuft va gu? ;$v11. 606 $aSpanish American literature$xHistory and criticism 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aSpanish American literature$xHistory and criticism. 676 $a468.2421 701 $aSkipper$b Eric$0984722 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910459360703321 996 $aA recipe for discourse$92250189 997 $aUNINA
