The literature of Spain and Latin America
This volume examines the prose of both Spanish and Latin American authors, whose narratives are informed as much by their imaginations as the turbulent histories of these native lands. --from publisher description.

Fantastic Short Stories by Women Authors from Spain and Latin America
The fantastic has been particularly prolific in Hispanic
countries during the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, largely
due to the legacy of short-story writers as well as the
Latin-American boom that presented alternatives to the model of
literary realism. While these writers' works have done much to
establish the Hispanic fantastic in the international literary
canon, women authors from Spain and Latin America are not always
acknowledged, and their work is less well known to readers. The aim
of this critical anthology is to render Hispanic female writers of
the fantastic visible, to publish a representative selection of
their work, and to make it accessible to English-speaking readers.
Five short stories are presented by five key authors. They attest
to the richness and diversity of fantastic fiction in the Spanish
language, and extend from the early twentieth to the twenty-first
century, covering a range of nationalities, cultural references and
language specificities from Spain, Mexico, Puerto Rico and
Argentina.

The Spanish literary generation of 1968
The Spanish Literary Generation of 1968: José Maria Guelbenzu, Lourdes Ortiz, and Ana María Moix serves multiple purposes. Most importantly, it is an overview of an important moment in Spanish literary history that is connected to an extremely important moment in world history, 1968, as well as what that year represents in many countries, such as France, Germany, Mexico, and the United States. This text aims to show how young writers who were coming of age precisely at that moment incorporated into their novels the new ideas that they found in the writing of many foreign authors, generally unknown to previous generations, whose works were essential to their development. The author has focused on three authors who he feels are most representative of their generation, and follows with a lengthy study of the critical reception they have received over time. Finally, in an appendix, one will find excerpts of an unpublished novel by Lourdes Ortiz and interviews with all three authors. It is hoped that this text, with its extensive bibliography, will serve as a valuable source for students and professors alike.
