Tias and Primas (aunts and cousins to us gringos lol) is getting fantastic reviews. On my to read pile, I couldn't wait to share the follow-up to For Brown Girls with Sharp Edges and Tender Hearts. A book for all women, no matter our color. I hope you will enjoy this "love letter to family, community, and Latinas everywhere".
Tias and Primas, breaking stereotypes and "fearlessly grappling with the effects of intergenerational trauma, centuries of colonization, and sexism, she attempts to heal the pain that is so often embodied in female family lines."
Born into a large, close-knit family in Nicaragua, Prisca Dorcas Mojica Rodríguez grew up surrounded by strong, kind, funny, sensitive, resilient, judgmental, messy, beautiful women. Whether blood relatives or chosen family, these tías and primas fundamentally shaped her view of the world—and so did the labels that were used to talk about them.
