Rediscovering Latinidad Season 5 Episode 3 El Cementerio de Los Cuentos Sin Contar

from Rediscovering Latinidad · host Rediscovering Latinidad

On today's episodes our co-host discuss Julia Alvarez's novel El Cementerio de los Cuentos sin Contrar. In this beautiful story, Alma inherits a small plot of land in the Dominican Republic, her homeland, she has the beautiful idea of turning it into a place to bury her untold stories—literally. She creates a graveyard for the manuscript drafts and revisions, and the characters whose lives she tried and failed to bring to life and who still haunt her. Alma wants her characters to rest in peace. But they have other ideas, and the cemetery becomes a mysterious sanctuary for their true narratives.
