Publisher Synopsis
"Language has always been a barrier to our unity as the Americas, and most especially to our reading of each other's literatures. Now with this new series by Oxford University Press, the library of Latin America is literally open to North Americans and to English speakers everywhere. This is an important series for anyone who is prevented from knowing the classics of the southern half of this hemisphere because of not knowing the language. !Bienvenidos tothese new readers!"-Julia Alvarez"Language has always been a barrier to our unity as the Americas, and most especially to our reading of each other's literatures.
