Yolanda Oreamuno

Yolanda Oreamuno was born on 8 April 1916 in San José. Working at the Post and Telegraph Office, she published her first short story in 1936 and contributed to the Repertorio Americano of Joaquín García Monge, her mentor. She lived in Chile, Mexico and Guatemala, whose nationality she took, and broke with the social realism of her Costa Rican contemporaries, Fabián Dobles or Joaquín Gutiérrez, through interior monologue and the contribution of psychoanalysis. She died in Mexico on 8 July 1956.
