Latin American Mystery Writers: An A-to-Z Guide
Posted on 2010-04-01
|  |
More Latin America has a rich literary tradition that is receiving growing amounts of attention. The body of Latin American mystery writing is especially vast and diverse. Because it is part of Latin American popular culture, it also reflects many of the social and cultural concerns of that region. This reference provides an overview of mystery fiction of Latin America. While many of the authors profiled have received critical attention, others have been relatively neglected. Lockhart, an assistant professor of Spanish at the University of Nevada, Reno, has edited both this volume on Latin American mystery writers and a companion volume on science fiction writers. Both volumes trace the development of their genres over roughly the past 100 years, with selective biocritical coverage of 54 writers in Mystery and 70 writers in Science Fiction. The scope is broadly defined in both cases: mystery encompasses both the classic detective fiction model and contemporary hard-boiled literature. As used here, Latin America spans countries of the Americas that are Spanish- or Portuguese-speaking but excludes Hispanic, Latino, or Chicano authors from the U.S. The majority of authors are associated with Argentina, Mexico, and Cuba. Alphabetically arranged author entries written by scholars feature the country of association, a narrative with biographical information that summarizes the author's literary contribution and impact on the genre, and a bibliography of primary and critical sources. Length of the narrative varies and can be anywhere from a couple of paragraphs to seven pages. All titles include English translations. Both volumes feature introductory essays on the genre and information on the contributors, many of whom are affiliated with Latin American universities. The volumes conclude with an index (mostly authors and titles) and a bibliography of literary anthologies and criticism by country. Download
