Popis: | Latin American literature had an important heyday in the decade of the 1960s due to the Latin-American Boom, and from there a cultural identity was formed. What happens in the present? Which America is being written? We argue how two movements that emerge in 1996 have modified a way of conceiving America in almost twenty years. Crack and McOndo achieved have impact on the European publishing field with its dynamic of new voices that were consolidated during a series of meetings. The result was "Bogotá 39" in 2007, where a continental generation emerges whose narrative configures a writing of America for the 21st century. |
