Combining historical perspective with personal and often opinionated interpretation, Fuentes gives us a tour from Machado de Assis to Borges and beyond. A landmark analysis, as well as a scintillating and often wry commentary on a great author's peers and influences, this book is as much a contribution to Latin American literature as it is a chronicle of that literature's greatest achievements" -- $c Provided by publisher. 505 0 $a Pre-Iberian foreword -- Discovery and conquest -- Colonial culture -- From colony to independence: Machado de Assis -- R©Ämulo Gallegos: impersonal nature -- The Mexican revolution -- Borges: silver from the river plate -- Upriver: Alejo Carpentier -- Onetti -- Julio Cort©Åzar and the smile of Erasmus -- Jos©â Lezama Lima: word and body of the baroque -- Garc©Ưa M©Årquez: second reading -- A time without heroes: Vargas Llosa -- Jos©â Donoso: from boom to boomerang -- The boomerang -- The post-boom -- The crack -- The post-boom -- N©âlida Pi©Åon in the republic of dreams -- Juan Goytisolo: persona grata -- First Mexican finale: a quintet of queens -- Second Mexican finale: three jacks -- A final word. 650 0 $a Latin American fiction $x History and criticism. 700 1 $a Riley, Brendan, $e translator. 941 $a 4 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20180201031123.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20170405042619.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20170315011505.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20170121011441.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=ED2F76206B5311E69AFE1DDBDAD10320 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
