On this episode, we are breaking one of our own rules: we are talking about two sisters who never met. In fact, they lived in different centuries on different continents. And yet, they’re Sisters. That’s right— capital S Sisters. Santa Teresa de Ávila and Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz were both nuns in the same order for part of their lives. And that’s not where the resemblance stops. They both were important writers and avid readers, and they both sought somewhat unconventional lifestyles. Learn all about the reasons why we think they count as sistory in this episode of Sistory Untold! Check out our website sistoryuntold.com for more resources and sources from this episode.
