Erika Sánchez, best-selling author of 'I Am Not Your Perfect Mexican Daughter,' describes a difficult path to contentment in new memoir.
Author Erika L. Sanchez released her third book,"Crying in the Bathroom," in 2022.Erika L. Sánchez doesn’t coddle readers with her new book “Crying in the Bathroom.” The first of nine essays skillfully stitched together into a memoir is titled “The Year My Vagina Broke.
Q: I was intrigued by the structure of the book. It felt at the outset like a series of essays despite the cover assertion that it was a memoir. I think it was the “La Mala Vida” essay in the middle where I noticed something was changing tonally. Pieces that felt isolated were pulled into a larger narrative.
A: There was some pretty intense revision that took place with the earlier essays. But the last one, I wrote right before I turned it in. That one, I felt like I needed to live it so I could write it. But the book was also delayed because of Covid. But I’m grateful because that gave me a chance to finesse it, add some things before it came out. I’m a meticulous writer. I take my time with these books. This one took six years or so. The last one took five. The poetry book took 10.
