The
Inhabited Women
Lavinia is a young professional woman in an unnamed Latin
American country, born into privilege and European trained.
She dreamt of constructing buildings, leaving her mark, giving
warmth and harmony to the concrete of the capital city. Lavinia
is not to be the master of her own destiny, however, because
she comes to be inhabited by the spirit of a woman indigenous
to the area at the time of the Spanish conquest. As this woman
of a previous age had used her energies as a force against
the oppressor, so she compels Lavinia to use hers to fight
against the political oppression of her contemporary world
