review for gabriele mistal a reader
By reading the translations you have a better understanding and felling of the author Gabrielle true meaning. It is put in a simple formula for a first time poetry reader or a person who reads a lot of peotry to appreciate the poems. "To the clouds and to see him again", bring you into the poem.
A Gabriela Mistral Reader
I like the poetry's modernized spelling and format. It helps the modern reader to understand the text. The poems are full of meaning, helpful and have a positive effect on readers. My favorites poems are "The Wild Strawberry," "Rocking," "Flour," "Morning" and "The Rose." The selected works of "A Gabriela Mistral Reader" is an enjoyable experience for students and people who love poetry. I would highly recommend this book to everyone because her poem shows real life situations that we have in today's world; they describe the importance of nature and have deep feeling about women and from nature. Jacketti translates her poems very beautifully.
Superb piece of writing
Just by reading "A Reader" by Gabriela Mistral one is able to experience the beauty of artistical language. Mistral's message to her readers depicts her real attitude toward life and how confidence she is of her profound feelings. Hungry readers will find satisfaction by understanding Mistral's content and enriching their cultural background. Mistral's word in "A Reader" is sufficient to open one's mind to see a different horizon. One will be able to find new ways to express sentiments that have been hidden in our hearts

New Elements on Mistral's Life and Beliefs.
Gabriela Mistral, private and public. There's been much debate about the subject but Fiol-Matta takes it further and amplifies it. In the book, she touches on Mistral's possible Lesbianism or in a White-Race supremacy belief before turning into the defender of Native Americans and Mestizos. She also talks about the use of pictures and other visual elements to create Mistral's image. The book is not easy to read, but brings new aspects on Mistral's life to counterback her "Mythical" and "Sanctified" Image. And as the author says, it is an opportunity to re-read the author's work, one of Latin America's Finest.
Gabriela unveiled
A work of scholarship accessible to all. It reads like a novel. Queer Mother is fresh, creative and audacious in its analysis of Gabriela Mistral's historical importance. It removes the veil from Gabriela and gives her back to her Latin American public. This time she is real, human and possibly gay. I loved Ines Munoz's letters to Gabriela...juicy stuff!
