With such figures as Jorge Luis Borges, Miguel ngel Asturias and Gabriel Garcia Marquez (both the latter Nobel Prizewinners) Spanish American fiction is now unquestionably an integral part of the mainstream of Western literature.This book draws on the most recent research in describing the origins and development of narrative in Spanish America during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, tracing the pattern from Romanticism and Realism, through Modernismo, Naturalism and Regionalism to the Boom and beyond.

DONALD SHAW holds the Brown Forman Chair of Spanish American literature in the University of Virginia.
