Tagged: latinaPosted on: December 3rd, 2007
Caridad Piñeiro, the author of romance, paranormal, and suspense novels, spoke at Swarthmore on Friday. In her lecture, titled “Empowering Women and Latinas in Modern Publishing: How the ‘South Beach Chicas’ Caught More than Their Men”, Piñeiro discussed the romance novel industry, public perception of romance novels, and empowering women and Latinas in the romance genre.
Piñeiro questioned disparaging attitudes towards romance novels, asking the audience, “How many of you think romance novels are bad?” and “How many of you think only unintelligent women read romance novels?””*
