  • "Un recuento del trágico y apasionado amor entre el conquistador Hernán Cortés y la india Malinalli, su intérprete durante la conquista del imperio azteca. Cuando Malinalli conoce a Cortés, asume que se trata del propio Dios Quetzalcóatl que regresa a liberar a su pueblo. Los dos se enamoran apasionadamente, pero este amor pronto es destruido por la desmedida sed de conquista, poder y riqueza de Cortés. A lo largo de la historia de México Malinalli/Malinche ha sido conocida por su traición al pueblo indio. Pero recientes investigaciones históricas han mostrado que Malinalli fue la mediadora entre dos culturas, la hispánica y la americana nativa; y entre dos lenguas, el español y el náhuatl. Lo que Esquivel ha hecho aquí es desafiar la mitología tradicional mediante un retrato muy temperamental del Adán y la Eva de la cultura mestiza, Cortés y Malinalli, con la caída del imperio azteca como telón de fondo. --Desde la descripción de la editorial."
  • "Fruto del diálogo entre el trabajo de la imaginación y el de reconstrucción histórica, Laura Esquivel narra con su estilo intenso y cálido la aventura vital de la mujer que creyó que el extranjero Hernán Cortés pondría fin a los terribles sacrificios humanos de la religión azteca, pero que acabaría en cambio descubriendo la crueldad no menos sangrienta de los conquistadores. (Buchdeckel verso)."
  • "When Malinalli, a member of the tribe conquered by the Aztec warriors, first meets CortEs, she -- like many -- believes that he is the reincarnated forefather god of her tribe. Naturally, she assumes that her task is to help CortEs destroy the Aztec empire and free her people. The two fall passionately in love, but Malinalli gradually comes to realize that CortEs's thirst for conquest is all too human. He is willing to destroy anyone, even his own men, even their own love. Throughout Mexican history, Malinalli has been reviled for her betrayal of the Indian people. However, recent historical research has shown that her role was much more complex; she was the mediator between two cultures, Hispanic and Native American, and two languages, Spanish and NAhuatl. Bursting with lyricism and vivid imagery, Malinche finally unveils the truth behind this legendary love affair."@en
  • "A historical novel retells the story of Hernán Cortés and Doña Marina, his interpreter and mistress during the conquest of Mexico."
  • "De indiaanse Malinche helpt de Spaanse conquistador Hernán Cortés in het 16e eeuwse Mexico als tolk bij zijn onderhandelingen met de inheemse bevolking. Ze krijgen een verhouding: een verboden liefde tegen de achtergrond van de gewelddadige onderdrukking van de indiaanse bevolking door Cortés en zijn leger."
  • "When Malinalli met Cortez she assumed that he was her god Quetzalcoatl returned to free her people. The two fell passionately in love, but this love was soon destroyed by Cortez's thirst for conquest, power, and riches. Though some have considered her a traitor to her people, this book pictures her more as a mediator between two cultures during the fall of the Aztec Empire and the birth of the mestiza culture."
