Synopsis "Las Siete Cabritas (in Spanish)"

Retratos de siete mujeres imprescindibles en la cultura mexicana: Frida Kahlo, Nahui Olin, Pita Amor, Rosario Castellanos, María Izquierdo, Elena Garro y Nellie Campobello.Bárbaras, bravísimas, locas para algunos y, por lo mismo, únicas. Artistas, pintoras, escritoras y musas, sus vidas se forjaron con pasión, sensibilidad, compromiso y dolor. Frida Kahlo y su cuerpo mutilado en el lienzo; Pita Amor, poeta irredenta; Nahui Olin y sus ojos de hechizo; María Izquierdo, pintora que se ganó la admiración unánime; Elena Garro, prócer de nuestra literatura; Rosario Castellanos, notable en cualquier género, y Nellie Campobello, bailarina grácil y cronista de la Revolución; todas ellas componen el elenco extraordinario de un siglo, escenario de sus grandes hazañas.La Biblioteca Elena Poniatowska reúne la obra narrativa, ensayística y periodística de la autora que ha sabido aquilatar el papel fundamental de las mujeres en la cultura y en la historia. A partir de testimonios, entrevistas y anécdotas, en Las siete cabritas delinea los perfiles de las protagonistas del México moderno.

Elena Poniatowska (Paris, 1932), Mexican writer and journalist of French-Polish origin, arrived in Mexico at the age of nine fleeing World War II. After studying in a religious boarding school in the U.S., she began her career at the newspaper Excelsior and established herself as a key voice in journalism and Spanish literature. Founder of media outlets like La Jornada and magazines like Fem, she combined her literary work with social and feminist activism. Author of emblematic works such as La noche de Tlatelolco (chronicle of the 1968 student movement) and novels like Leonora (about Leonora Carrington), she has received awards such as the Cervantes (2013), the Alfaguara (2001), and the Rómulo Gallegos (2007). Her works span novels, essays, poetry, and children's literature, always with a commitment to justice and historical memory.
