The reader will basically have in their hands a contemporary master's degree education, in the Latin American novel. Valuable writers who have been marginalized by racism, sexism, classism, etc., are included and studied alongside the most famous names. Almost any novel of importance can be found in the index, and it is studied from diverse angles in the various chapters. The Oxford Handbook of the Latin American Novel will occupy an important place on the shelves of books in English on Latin American literature and it will be the starting point [for those] interested with staying up to date with literary discussions about the Latin American novel in the future. * George Carlsen, Visitas al Patio *
