We don't know much of Mexican Catholic nuns. How many are there , what do they think, what are they in search of, what are their dreams or nightmares? We don't know how they survive in an ideologically hostile environment, how they preserve their medieval structures, how they support themselves, love and live power, sexuality, economy, solitude and death.
In this book the author writes about her ten year experience in the convent through essays and reflections about nun themes.
This book can cause unease, dislike and incomprehension since the author is an ex-nun that has become a lesbian activist and an atheist. For some, her writings may seem ridiculous instead of dramatic, boring instead of sublime, grotesque instead of intimate. Some readers might even see pornography, bluntness , or aggression where the intention was only to show how complex everyday life among women living together is.
