Review
'... rarely do we find a work of this calibre with such depth of scholarly grounding and breadth of critical approach ... Writing the Apocalypse both informs convincingly and suggests the possibility of further studies in a similar vein ... Every Hispanist who is concerned with the dynamics of contemporary literature in Latin America - not to mention the US - should read this excellent work.' Hispanic Review
Book Description
