Silent Sky
THE STORY: When Henrietta Leavitt begins work at the Harvard Observatory in the early 1900s, she isn’t allowed to touch a telescope or express an original idea. Instead, she joins a group of women “computers,” charting the stars for a renowned astronomer who calculates projects in “girl hours” and has no time for the women’s probing theories. As Henrietta, in her free time, attempts to measure the light and distance of stars, she must also take measure of her life on Earth, trying to balance her dedication to science with family obligations and the possibility of love. The true story of 19th-century astronomer Henrietta Leavitt explores a woman’s place in society during a time of immense scientific discoveries, when women’s ideas were dismissed until men claimed credit for them. Social progress, like scientific progress, can be hard to see when one is trapped among earthly complications; Henrietta Leavitt and her female peers believe in both, and their dedication changed the way we understand both the heavens and Earth.

Latino Fiction and the Modernist Imagination
To form an identity out of a cultural ajiaco or stew is one of the creative challenges for Latino/a authors. Based on an analysis of recent novels and short stories written in English by mainland, ethnically diverse Latin American writers such as Cisneros, Ed Vega, Cristina Garcia, Hijuelos, and Pineda, the author (no background cited) elucidates the literary context of their hybridized narrative techniques, language issues relevant to "English con salsa," and "the Latino quest for ancestors" within carnival rituals.
