En Argentina se inicia en el sindicalismo y la pol tica, cuya experiencia le sirve, a su regreso, para participar activamente en la vida pol tica y democr tica de su municipio, hasta que estalla la guerra civil."

Lorraine L pez has long been one of my favorite short story writers and this perfect collection highlights exactly why. In Postcards from the Gerund State, L pez utilizes a sense of humor that is so controlled that every single page contains sneaky detonations that you can't help but go back to again and again to marvel at them. And, because L pez is so masterful, she ties that humor to deeply complex characters, a unique community, their relationships so wonderfully examined. A truly singular writer, L pez has made something amazing.
