Abstract
This paper explores the construction of a bilingual, female, heterosexual subjetivity in Dominican-American author Julia Alvarez's How the Garcia Girls Lost Their Accents. The paper argues that the theoretical excesses in the narrative revolve around a bilingual difference that problematizes heterosexuality's efforts to become a hegemonic discourse.
