Recenzii
'McGuirk can take more credit than most for having been genuinely challenging, and, in the wider context, he is very aware of the institutional uses to which theory has been put.' ...'confidently penetrating close analysis.' - Bulletin of Hispanic Studies 98
'This daring and thought-provoking book covers Latin America in the Twentieth Century, examining an expressive and very diverse range of modern literatures.' - Nossa America
'This is a wonderful book. It is important to Vallejo and Borges criticism, for instance, because it contributes in powerful ways to renew or develop them. There are luminous insights throughout, both theoretical and literary-historical, critical and meta-critical. But the book is important, most of all, as a major contribution to a particular way of reading the cultural text, which no matter what critics might say, is thoroughly under-represented in Latin-American criticism.' - The Modern Language Review
' ... any reader will find it stimulating, let alone the expert in the field, for whom it will be no less appetizing.' - Turia Cultural Review
