Annotation
Interprets the critically neglected Maria through the lens of trauma theory and Spanish culture, analyzing how sexuality, domesticity, and wartime trauma combine within her to create a true fighter. Contends that while Robert Jordan is noble and brave, Maria is the hero of the novel because she embodies the Spanish spirit of resiliency.
