Sex At The Park: Stories From My Days With Ninfa, Dalel Serda
Sex At The Park: Stories From My Days With Ninfa, Dalel Serda
Theses and Dissertations - UTB/UTPA
This creative nonfiction manuscript chronicles the burgeoning relationship between the narrator and her subject, Ninfa—the folkloric, enduring and elusive Harlingen, Texas prostitute. This project aims to document the process of demystification the narrator undergoes as the women get to know each other.

In sum, this work explores the often-blurry boundaries and complexities of what is inevitably a friendship.

Throughout the text, I juxtapose my life story with Cleng’s. Together we experience relocation, homesickness and hardships and create a familial bond 188 years after his arrival in America. My thesis ends at the Murray/Kendall settlement …
