Latin America: The Writer's Journey - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

Gathered over a period of many months, these interviews reflect the style of the individual nations. The books includes the work of Manilo Argueta, Eduardo Galeano, Jorge Amado, Octavio Paz, Guillermo Cabrera Infante, Manuel Puig and Mario Vargas Llosa, as well as newer writers such as Ribeiro and Luisa Valenzuela. The interviews create an expressionist collage of a continent and a subjective history. In a continent where the truth has often been fantastic, where horrors, political upheavals and even nature itself are on a heroic scale, it seems that writers, like the Ancient Mariner, are endowed with a strange power of speech.
