Reviews

""Las Raras is an essential contribution to the field of Modernista studies and Latin American literary and cultural studies of the turn of the twentieth century. Focusing on a group of women writers, some of whom are rather well known and others much lesser known, it is one of very few book-length studies that brings these texts to an English-reading audience."" --Andrew Reynolds, author of The Spanish American Crónica Modernista, Temporality and Material Culture: Modernismo's Unstoppable Presses ""The first two chapters provide an essential framework that analyzes the work of key Modernista figures. . . . [Moody] highlights the importance of studying Modernismo as a transatlantic intellectual network, inviting scholars to return to the archives to reconsider marginalized figures. The remaining chapters provide an engaging reading of Clorinda Matto de Turner, María Eugenia Vaz Ferreira, and Zoila Aurora Cáceres. . . . Highly recommended."" --Choice
