"La Casa de Bernarda Alba ($17) by Federico García Lorca is a classic play that I read in a Spanish literature class and completely shifted my perspective on feminism and domesticity," Carolina said. She loved how this story, which was first published in 1945, gives you an intimate look into the lives of the women in a family following the death of the matriarch's second husband. "Lorca is poetic and imaginative in his lines, and he unravels the complex web of female expectations and relationships between mother and child and sister to sister."
