Adela Fernández y Fernández

Adela Fernández y Fernández was a Mexican folk writer and teacher of theater. Fernández left behind an important bibliography composed of 14 books of literature, poetry, anthropology and Mexican history, two short films of experimental cinema, and numerous plays. Gabriel García Márquez has described Fernández's literature as "extremely dark, very sad" and her work Aunt Enedina's Cage as being "among the ten Latin American stories that every person should read."
