Recenzii
A brave and illuminating study of Latin American documentary narrative and journalism as story-telling. Focussing on true stories told by a first-person witness, Chavez, a journalist by training, makes an incisive contribution to our understanding and appreciation of this distinctive genre. She hones in on the writing style and motivation of eight celebrated literary-journalists, including Gabriel García Márquez and Elena Poniatowska, to underscore the commitment and ethical choices made by these truth-seeking authors and, in some cases, the heavy price they had to pay. Makes for compelling reading.
Latin American Documentary Narratives is by far the richest and best-informed state-of-the-art account of the vast body of contemporary Latin American nonfiction narratives. With an insider's experience of journalism as an institution and as textual practice and the rigor of a trained literary scholar, Liliana Chávez Díaz has written a field-defining book that will have immediate and long-lasting impact.
Part literary criticism, part metajournalism, this book takes the reader on a fascinating journey through Latin America's documentative non/fiction of the past half century. Describing a generic hall of mirrors, where fiction and nonfiction endlessly reflect and absorb each other's image, Chávez Díaz interrogates the "ethical pitfalls" a literary journalist confronts as mediator between a disenfranchised informant and a narrative-hungry reader.
