Description

This thesis studies three texts by three U.S. Latina authors from the Hispanic Caribbean through the lens of Chicana feminist border theory. The works analyzed are How the Garcia Girls Lost Their Accents (1991) by Dominican author Julia Alvarez, Dreaming in Cuban (1992) by Cuban-American novelist Cristina Garcia, and the memoir Almost a Woman (1998) by Puerto Rican author Esmeralda Santiago. The theoretical framework used is Gloria Anzaldua's Borderlands/La Frontera: The New Mestiza. The objective is to show how these texts manifest the formation of a hybrid, diasporic, in-between identity that corresponds with Anzaldua's definition of mestiza consciousness or la conciencia mestiza, despite the different geographical, political and social contexts to which they refer. This thesis also explores the ways in which Alvarez, Garcia and Santiago shed new light to this borderlands identity in ways Anzaldua's canonical text does not.
