- Liliana's invincible summer : a sister's search for justice / by Rivera Garza, Cristina,1964-author.; translation of:Rivera Garza, Cristina,1964-Invencible verano de Liliana.English.;
"In the early hours of July 16, 1990, Liliana Rivera Garza was murdered by her abusive ex-boyfriend. A life full of promise and hope, cut tragically short, Liliana's story instead became subsumed into Mexico's dark and relentless history of domestic violence. With Liliana's case file abandoned by a corrupt criminal justice system, her family, including her older sister Cristina, was forced to process their grief and guilt in private, without any hope for justice. A memoir decades in the making, Liliana's Invincible Summer tells a singular yet universally resonant story: that of a spirited, wondrously romantic young woman who tried to survive in a world of increasingly normalized gendered violence. It traces the story of her childhood, her early romance with a handsome--but insecure and possessive--older man, through the exhilarating weeks leading up to that fateful July morning, a summer when Liliana loved, thought, and traveled more widely and freely than she ever had before"--- Subjects: Biographies.; Personal narratives.; Rivera Garza, Cristina, 1964-; Rivera Garza, Liliana, 1969-1990.; Intimate partner violence; Murder victims' families;
