Characters are made, scripted, and invented, but Creators and Created Beings in Twentieth Century Latin American Fiction explores what occurs when literary creations become creators themselves. Representing Latin American fictions increasingly skeptical gaze in the early- to mid- twentieth century, these literary creators breach the metafictional frame in order to problematize themes including life and death, gender and sexuality, and technology. Drawing upon a diverse range of literary works by canonical and non-canonical authors including Jorge Luis Borges, Horacio Quiroga, Carlos Onetti, Julio Cortázar, María Luisa Bombal, Carlos Fuentes, Roberto Arlt, Juan José Arreola, Eduardo Ladislao Holmberg, Clemente Palma, Adolfo Bioy Casares, and Pedro Angelici, this study excavates critical ontological and epistemological inquiries and delves into questions of identity, power, scientific knowledge, and the transformative nature of fiction.

Arvustused

This book reflects years of Dr. Frazier-Yoders deep intellectual engagement with the works of some of Latin Americas most beloved and respected writers. Her analysis of what she dubs character creation as a vehicle for epistemological questioning and ontological disruption allows for fresh interpretations of canonical and lesser-known texts alike. In fact, the four areas of inquiry she identifies in these twentieth-century works feel especially relevant for twenty-first-century readers and scholars of Spanish-language literature. -- Andrea M. Smith, Shenandoah University
