«Las voces silenciadas» is Xinran's memoir, published by Amok ediciones in paperback (259 pages, in Spanish).
Xinran hosted a radio programme in China between 1989 and 1997 in which women recounted their experiences: forced marriages, rape, homosexuality, and the place of women in modern China. The book collects these testimonies and traces a social portrait of the era, marked by censorship and official hypocrisy.
Originally published in 2002 as The Good Women of China: Hidden Voices, in a translation by María Condor. Nominated for the Kiriyama Prize for non-fiction in 2002.
Recommended reading for those interested in memoirs, Chinese history and gender studies, as well as in true stories of overcoming and survival.
