Produktinformationen zu „Oblivion and Stone (PDF)“
In a literature where recognition is hard earned, this anthology demonstrates what distinguishes contemporary Bolivian fiction and poetry from the rest of Latin American writing and shows clearly how Bolivian writers relate to that tradition.Bolivia is a landlocked nation of mountains and high, arid plains, a place native writer Jess Urzagasti calls the "e;Land of Silence."e; This crucible of indigenous and European influences has contributed to the creation of a writing style that is always down-to-earth, often grittily realistic.From this fundamental base, Bolivian writers express provincial customs and values, decry political oppression, and sound universal themes of isolation, even resignation; but, more often, they show the will to move forward as a people. This rich thematic mix encourages what critic Edgar Lora has called the "e;dynamic and vigorous social dis course"e; and the resulting "e;subversive, militant, and revolutionary"e; qualities of Bolivian literature.Editor Sandra Reyes has gathered a panoramic sampling of twenty two poets and eighteen fiction writers. Focusing predominantly on living, practicing writers, this anthology defines the current literary voice of Bolivia and gives us a distillation of the contemporary Bolivian consciousness.
