El Parbulito |
Gloria Delgado, born and raised in San Francisco’s Haight-Ashbury district, is the daughter of a Mexican father and a Hawaii-born Puerto Rican mother. She and her husband live in Albany, California. One of her stories, “Savanna,” was included in the Berkeley Community Memoir Project’s recently published collection, “A Wiggle and a Prayer.” This is her fourth story for “Somos en escrito.” |
A truly brilliant story. One of the best pieces of contemporary fiction I've read in years. This what true literature is: transcendent, illuminating the secret mazes of the human psyche.
Thank you for your gracious, generous, encouraging comments. Your praise means so much to me, more than mere words can express.
Beautifully written -the details create a vivid story-I was on the edge of my seat as I was taken back in time..Mrs.Delgado's literary voice mirrors her strong heart and sharp mind! Te amo!
Thank you so much for commenting. I'm glad you enjoyed the story. And - I love you back!
