Surreal, poetic, naturalistic, urbane, peasant-born: All styles intersect and play, often within a single piece. There is \"The Handsomest Drown Man in the World,\" the García Márquez fable of a village overcome by the power of human beauty; \"The Aleph,\" Borges' classic tale of a man who discovers, in a colleague's cellar, the Universe. Here is the haunting shades of Juan Rulfo, the astonishing anxiety puzzles of Julio Cortázar, the disquieted domesticity of Clarice Lispector. Provocative, powerful, immensely engaging, \u003cb\u003eThe Vintage Book of Latin American Stories\u003c\/b\u003e showcases the ingenuity, diversity, and continuing excellence of a vast and vivid literary tradition.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Carlos Fuentes\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Vintage\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/05\/2000\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 400\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.71lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.97h x 5.19w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780679775515\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/06\/2000 pg. 72\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2000 pg. 519\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/2001 pg. 159\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePoder Hispanic\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/01\/2001 pg. 66\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCarlos Fuentes is the author of more than a dozen novels.
