The first in the series, the Concise Encyclopedia of Latin American Literature, will be published in June; The Concise includes: all entries on topics and countries -- those cited by many reviewers as being among the best entries in the book; entries on the 50 leading writers in Latin America from colonial times to the present; and detailed articles on some 50 important works in this literature -- those most read and studied in the English-speaking world ER -
