Abstract
Excerpt: If one of the goals of young adult writing is to educate and entertain readers, then Woman in a Frame is a success. In the figure of Marcela Simbulan, Raissa Rivera Falgui creates the Philippine equivalent of “Shakespeare’s sister,” and imagines what a native Filipino woman in the nineteenth century would have had to go through if she wanted to be an artist.
