This collection brings together twenty-one mesmerizing stories by some of today's premier voices in contemporary Latin American literature. Selections represent the wide and varied spectrum of new Latin American writing, with authors exploring historical legends and hyper-realities with humor and subversive wit, while others darkly illuminate the contemporary urban scene with a grittier narrative and stylistic daring. Spanning life in the Latin Americas over the last several decades, the settings for these stories sweep from South America to Mexico and the Caribbean, and as far north as Alaska. A stellar collection of inventive storytelling, it will prove as irresistible as it is provocative, the mark of the very best in recent Latin American fiction.
