Excellent collection. Truly gives the reader a solid background in history, politics, and the literary personality of Latin America.

Este es un libro imprescindible para el lector latino. Los autores hispanoamericanos en esta obra, son tan diversos como son unicos. La editora de este libro escoge las voces mas influenciantes de Latinoamerica y nos la presenta en esta obra con criterio y orgullo a la vez. Desde del Inca C Gascilaso de la Vega y Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz hasta Alejo Carpentier y Pedro Mir. Este libro tambien expone obras, criticas y resenas sobre el movimiento literario de America, desde el descubrimiento America hasta el presente. Esta es la unica antologia literaria hispanoamerica que van a necesitar y a apreciar.

Excellent anthology with good scholarship on literary periods. Sticks mostly to the mainstream canon, but is much better than previous survey anthologies. For example, it now includes Rosario Ferré and Luis Rafael Sánchez.
