Redes, alianzas y afinidades. Mujeres y escritura en América Latina. Homenaje a Montserrat Ordóñez (1941-2011)
Este libro reúne los resultados de investigación presentados en el simposio Redes, alianzas y afinidades: escritura de mujeres en América Latina, siglos xix y xx (Bogotá, Universidad de los Andes, 2 a 4 de noviembre de 2011), organizado por la Universidad de los Andes y la Universidad de Chile y coordinado por las compiladoras.1 El simposio fue organizado en homenaje a la escritora colombiana Montserrat Ordóñez (1941-2001), investigadora, escritora, poeta, traductora y editora que, como las mujeres reunidas en esta publicación, supo que el lugar de las mujeres en la escritura se elabora, sostiene y expande sobre un gran tejido de redes que hacen posible ese lugar y su sentido. Este libro quiere que la red académica que hizo posible la realización del simposio se conserve en el tiempo, así como contribuir al fortalecimiento de la red de estudios latinoamericanos, en particular los literarios y de género.

Among the Lost
In the desolate wastelands between the sierra and the jungle, under an all-seeing, unforgiving sun, a single day unfolds as relentlessly as those that have gone before. People are trafficked and brutalised, illegal migrants are cheated of their money, their dreams, their very names even as countless others scrabble to cross the border, trying to reach a land they call El Paraíso. In this grim inferno, a fierce love has blossomed — one that was born in pain and cruelty, and one that will live or die on this day.
