This book argues for the necessary and further examination of the
sacred as it is ritualized within Chicana fiction. It suggests that
religious, spiritual, linguistic and political symbolisms reveal
rites that structure narrative performances of coping with and
healing from trauma. Helane Androne examines these rites of spirit,
service, and story as they occur in Ana Castillo's So Far From God,
Denise Chavez's Face of An Angel, and Sandra Cisneros' Caramelo.
Beginning with the implications of Gloria Anzaldua's spiritual
vision of Chicana identity alongside structural principles of
ritual criticism, this study extends the discourse about the impact
of the sacred in Chicana fiction. an>
