| Introduction | Cecile Pineda is the author of six published novels. Face, Frieze, The Love Queen of the Amazon (a satire of magic realism); Fishlight, the memoir of an imagined childhood, Bardo99 in which the 20th Century undergoes a bardo state; and Redoubt, a meditation on gender. Devil's Tango: How I Learned the Fukushima Step by Step exposes the harms of the nuclear industry in its weapons- and energy making cycles; Apology to a Whale: Words to Mend a World draws on archeology, linguistics, and the communication of plants, animals, and indigenous people to reflect on the role of language in determining the present world's power alignments. Her books are available from Wingspress.com. Prior to her literary career, Pineda founded and directed her own experimental theater company. Visit her web site at http://www.cecilepineda.com. |
