Book excerpt: "By depicting the strength of Petra and other Chicanas, Margarita Cota-Cardenas addresses the complexities of life in an important period of time for the development of Chicana/o consciousness. As her characters grapple with issues of family, abuse, and loss, they combine the traits of saints and devils, heroes and villains to show that the representation of life is as complex as life itself."--BOOK JACKET.
