“A Valentine Story / La Valentina,” 2 corrected facsimile pages, November 23, 1998
Subseries Description
Short Stories span 1982-2012 and are arranged alphabetically. A number of stories were originally housed in a folder title “Antojitos collection,” dating from 1982-1987. These stories were kept together in box 45, folders 1-15. The rest of the short stories follow, and are also arranged alphabetically. Many include multiple drafts, with stories such as “Machu Pichu,” “Martita te Requerdo,” and “The Snow Queen,” a poem inspired by former San Antonio mayor, Henry Cisneros, comprising several folders. Also of interest in the short stories is “Solo Tú,” early material for “You Bring Out the Mexican in Me.”
