Abstract |
Gabriel García Márquez is considered one of the most significant authors in the Spanish language. This invaluable guide gives a wide-ranging but in-depth survey of the global debate over Garcia Márquez's fiction. It explores the major critical responses to his key works, devoting two whole chapters to One Hundred Years of Solitude. It also examines Garcia Márquez's lesser-known short fiction, his place in the Boom, magical realism and his influence on other writers. Jay Corwin discusses both European and US-centric interpretations, balancing these with indigenous and Hispanic contexts to give the reader an overarching understanding of the global reception of Garcia Márquez's work.-- Publisher's description. |
