Norton anthology of latino literature amazon

There are plenty of writers I didn't know but enjoyed. I now extended my To read book pile by several. For me, this is a must own book. I've maxed out my library renewal allotment keeping it so long.

I'd like to continue searching for the gems that see I read quite a bit of the stories and enjoyed most of them.

The author knows well his subject and brings about this literary work. Goes from the time of the Colonization where the actions were documented by the Friers like Fray Bartolome de las Casas to the 20th Century with writers like Bernardo Vega, Pedro Albizu Campo, Rene Marques and others with a corssover of some Spanish writers from Spain.

I do like the compendium of historical references and short biographies as a footnote at the end of the pages. Serves as a good reference book. Aug 23, Aloud LA rated it it was amazing.

Ilan Stavans has spread a feast of Latino literature before us. It promises to educate, inspire and change us. Just as the South American literary "boom" of the '60s enriched our literature beyond measure, the recognition of Latino literature promises to open our minds and our hearts to the Spanish language literature being made all around us.

This book is a cause for celebration.
