註釋Nicholasa Mohr writes from the heart of her cultural circumstances, that of being a New York Puerto Rican female, and she succeeds in universalizing the struggles and triumphs of the characters that share her background reality. MohrÍs many books have been distinguished by some of the most coveted awards of the publishing world: The New York Times Outstanding Book of the Year, Library Journal Best Book of the Year, American Book Award, National Book Award Finalist, and Jane Adams ñCitation of Merit.î Rituals of Survival: A WomanÍs Portfolio is Nicholasa MohrÍs testimonial to the indomitable women who face urban blight, poverty and most of all, the limiting roles that men try to create for them. MohrÍs characters demand our support and respect for their declarations of independence and the domestic and social revolutions they pursue.
