This book is a history of women, radio, and the gendered constructions of voice and sound in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and Montevideo, Uruguay. Through the stories of five women and one radio station, this study makes a substantial theoretical contribution to the study of gender, mass media, and political culture and expands our knowledge of these issues beyond the US and Western Europe. Included here is a study of the first all-women's radio station in the Western Hemisphere, an Argentine comedian known as 'Chaplin in Skirts', an author of titillating dramatic serials and, of course, Argentine First Lady 'Evita' Peron. Through the concept of the gendered soundscape, this study integrates sound studies and gender history in new ways, asking readers to consider both the female voice in history and the sonic dimensions of gender.

"Radiante, luminoso. El desierto es un prisma de perros, cardos, polvo y cielo. La China Iron acompaña a Liz, una inglesa que va tras su marido llevado por la leva. Ella, en cambio, no busca a Martín Fierro, ese gaucho que se la ganó en un partido de truco. La China escapa. Y es su viaje exploración: de la textura de la seda, del sabor del té, del sofoco en que estalla el sexo. Descubre palabras. Sonidos nuevos para cosas que antes no existían" -- Provided by publisher.

Ruth Epelbaum es un personaje pleno, es decir, sentimos que tiene una vida propia. Es una mina judía argentina de cierta edad que se va haciendo detective. Cuando va a la peluquería o toma té en la cocina con Gladys la empleada; cuando su incalificable prima Lea la conecta con Chiquito Gold y le encargan localizar a la esquiva Débora; cuando encuentra un cadáver en el Tigre o conoce a un tipo en el micro a Paraná; cuando el pasado familiar la Swi Migdal y algo que acaso le venga con el nombre de la bíblica moabita, sola y solidaria, la hace mezclarse en una historia tenebrosa. Nunca deja de ser una mina, nunca deja de estar en la Argentina de hoy de vivir en Villa Crespo, de hacer bizcochuelos o transpirar tras el pelado juez Fontana en el gimnasio; es judía todo el tiempo y tiene los años, el cuerpo, las ganas, las amigas y los puntos que tuvo o se le cruzan a cada rato o no tanto: Ruth existe. Y existe el mundo en el que se mueve.

Addressing the largely understudied issue of how gendered spatial relations impact the production of literary works, this book includes a discussion on gender implications of spatial categories like the notions of home and away, placement and displacement, dwelling and travel, location and dislocation, and the "quest for place" in women's writing from Argentina from 1910 to the present. This study offers a cross-disciplinary model, blending theories from the social sciences' approaches to the production of space, feminist criticism about spatialization processes as gender based, and Latin American theories on geopolitics and the establishment of national territories.
