Like Water for Chocolate Mackenzie E. Dennard Like Water for Chocolate , is a contemporary novel based on romance, recipes and home remedies. Very little criticism has been done on the novel. Of the few essays that are written on this work, the majority of them consist of feminist critique. This novel would be most easily approached from a feminist view because of the intricate relationships between women. However, relationships between women are only one of the many elements touched upon in the novel. Like Water for Chocolate is a novel that uses recipes as a crypt for many important themes in the novel. Jaques Derrida defines crypt as something that, "disguise[s] the act of hiding and to hide the disguise: the crypt hides as it holds" (Derrida 14) . The recipes are more than just formulas, they hold, concealed within them, memories. These crypts are revealed through food and the process of food production. Esquivel has personal ties with food and feels that the production of food creates a center of the household. Tita, being the person most closely associated with food preparation in the novel, becomes the primary focus in the structure of her family. The crypts that Esquivel uses are opened throughout the novel in a variety of ways. Tita is constantly struggling against her mother, tradition and inevitably her own destiny. Along the way many aspects of her trials are revealed in her cooking. Eventually, Tita is able to free herself from the emotional chains that her mother has bound her. In the end her destiny is revealed, which in return sets her free from her struggles.

It may have taken a few years, but I finally discovered (or was given) Like Water for Chocolate . I enjoyed the story so much, that I want to share it with you. The story takes place on a ranch on the Texas/Mexico border in the late nineteenth century. Mama Elena is the widowed matriarch of the family. She has three daughters named Rosaura, Gertrudis, and Tita. The story revolves around Tita, who as the youngest daughter, is sentenced to a life of service for her mother. Tita will never be able to marry or have children as she is bound to her mother's every wish and whim until the day Mama Elena dies. What makes fifteen year-old Tita's situation more tragic is that she is deeply in love with a young man named Pedro. When Pedro comes to ask Mama Elena for permission to marry Tita, the matriarch says no. She offers Pedro seventeen year-old Rosaura instead. Pedro agrees to marry Rosaura, though only to be near Tita, his true love. Like Water for Chocolate is the story of forbidden love between Tita and Pedro. Mama Elena knows the score and makes sure Pedro and Tita are never alone anywhere on the ranch. Tita is forced to stay in the kitchen and prepare the family's meals.

>>AUTOR ENLACES LAURA ESQUIVEL "La literatura le sana a uno, y si también puede sanar a los demás, qué maravilla." E l 30 de septiembre de 1950 nació en la ciudad de México Laura Esquivel. Desde pequeña se sintió atraída por el mundo de la imaginación, de la fantasía. Ya desde entonces realizaba cuentos maravillosos que sin embargo no se atrevía a perpetuarlos con la escritura, porque aquellos mundos eran tan delicados que de apuntalarlos con el cemento de las letras se desmoronarían. Sin embargo las fantasías fueron creciendo, perfeccionándose, y vieron su máxima concreción con la imagen en movimiento: el cine. El cine fue una forma de hacer verdad ese mundo maravilloso, y empezó a estudiar cine, le puso mucha atención a las técnicas narrativas del celuloide que muy pronto estuvo trabajando al lado de quien en el futuro sería su marido: el actor Alfonso Arau. Cuando éste probó suerte como director ahí estaba Laura con una sonrisa y una perspicacia efectiva y su gran intuición de mujer. Aún quedaban lejos los momentos de creación de sus famosas recetas de cocina. Como guionista se estrenó en 1985 con Guido Guán y Tacos de oro, nominada por la Academia de Ciencias y Artes Cinematográficas de México para el Ariel. En esta época la situación cinematográfica en el país de los mayas era muy mala, hubo una baja terrible de presupuesto para producciones independientes o apoyadas por el Estado y Laura se vio confinada a un pequeño retiro. Estaba ya casada con Arau. Fue entonces cuando se atrevió a poner en papel algunas de sus historias.

Books 'Swift as Desire' by Laura Esquivel Message resonates, but creativity leaves a little to be desired Sunday, October 14, 2001 By By Sharon Dilworth, fiction writer who teaches English at Carnegie Mellon University Swift as Desire By Laura Esquivel Crown Laura Esquivel’s first novel, “Like Water for Chocolate,” was a quirky blend of soap opera romance, magic realism and mystical Mexican cookbook filled with recipes and homemade remedies. The novel’s strength was grounded in the way the plot focused on women’s sexual desires and the original way in which she celebrated these desires. Esquivel’s fourth novel doesn’t have the wild scope of her first. It lacks the inventiveness of situation and character that so filled “Chocolate,” but it tells a sweet story of lost love and lessons learned. The slim narrative skims over many years, introducing many characters, much too quickly and none too thoroughly. The novel feels as if it’s rushing to get to its message: the importance of communication in sustaining love.
