A review by haudurn
Cantoras by Caro De Robertis

3.0

Fascinating premise of lesbians in Uruguay living in the dictatorship of the late 1970s/early 1980s and how these women "grow up" and their lives progress as their friendship remains. I would have liked this more if the characters were more defined - this may be a function of the translation but I had a hard time separating the women as they all had similar personalities. This book will assume you have some historical understanding of the politics and the zeitgeist.
