Abstract: Los escritores chicanos han logrado abrirse paso en los canones literarios de los Estados Unidos. Entre ellos destacan autoras como Gloria Anzaldua, Sandra Cisneros o Ana Castillo, entre muchos otros, quienes testimonian en sus obras la lucha de miles de latinos contra una cultura hegemonica que los menosprecia y en la que logran alcanzar el exito. Y especialmente, Ana Castillo, quien defiende con denuedo la figura de la mujer chicana.
