Book Description
In the final analysis, Ocampo's works achieve equilibrium between childhood and age, whereas Pizarnik's much-discussed poetic crisis of exile from language itself parallels her deep sense of anxiety at being exiled from the world of childhood."--BOOK JACKET.

Book Description
In Adiós Niño: The Gangs of Guatemala City and the Politics of Death, Deborah T. Levenson examines transformations in the Guatemalan gangs called Maras from their emergence in the 1980s to the early 2000s. A historical study, Adiós Niño describes how fragile spaces of friendship and exploration turned into rigid and violent ones in which youth, and especially young men, came to employ death as a natural way of living for the short period that they expected to survive. Levenson relates the stark changes in the Maras to global, national, and urban deterioration; transregional gangs that intersect with the drug trade; and the Guatemalan military's obliteration of radical popular movements and of social imaginaries of solidarity. Part of Guatemala City's reconfigured social, political, and cultural milieu, with their members often trapped in Guatemala's growing prison system, the gangs are used to justify remilitarization in Guatemala's contemporary postwar, post-peace era. Portraying the Maras as microcosms of broader tragedies, and pointing out the difficulties faced by those youth who seek to escape the gangs, Levenson poses important questions about the relationship between trauma, memory, and historical agency.

Book Description
Cristina Peri Rossi is one of the most acclaimed and personal voices in Hispanic letters. This volume of short stories, Panic Signs, first published in 1970 in Montevideo, Uruguay, presages the atrocities that would come with dictatorship in 1972. The premonitory dimension is one of the striking characteristics in all the stories — a sense of impending catastrophe, sometimes hallucinatory and often graphic, leads us to undetermined places where the horrors of censorship, torture, and human bondage take place. At the same time, the stories expose the shackles that incapacitate us and deny us the acceptance of ourselves. This elegy for freedom mourns the loss of liberty and justice while seducing us into questioning what we hold true. The metaphorical procession of images, and the craftsmanship of a narrative that continually engage us, motivate us to explore our own uncertainties and values, and offer an unquestionable opportunity to reassess today’s global conditions. Peri Rossi succeeds in creating a whirlwind of despair and self-discovery, impelling us to assess our own panic signs and so avoid being entrapped by those who hold power over us. The translation of this powerful text will help English-speaking readers attain a more profound understanding of the complexities of Latin America’s cultural and socio-political issues.

Book Description
Gay and lesbian themes in Latin American literature have been largely ignored. This reference fills this gap by providing more than a hundred alphabetically arranged entries for Latin American authors who have treated gay or lesbian material in their works. Each entry explores the significance of gay and lesbian themes in a particular author's writings and closes with a bibliography of primary and secondary sources. The figures included have a professed gay identity, or have written on gay or lesbian themes in either a positive or negative way, or have authored works in which a gay sensibility can be identified. The volume pays particular attention to the difficulty of ascribing North American critical perspectives to Latin American authors, and studies these authors within the larger context of Latin American culture. The book includes entries for men and women, and for authors from Latin American countries as well as Latino writers from the United States. The entries are written by roughly 60 expert contributors from Latin America, the U.S., and Europe.

Book Description
El hechizo de tantos mundos habla de lo bello, estimulante, potencialmente fertil que es el vivir en un mundo pluralista: muchos pueblos, valores, realidades y perspectivas. Y por supuesto muchas preguntas. La primera parte del libro consiste en seis conversaciones, realizadas en Roma, entre la misma autora Ornella Rota y un General de la Aeronautica Militar Vincenzo Parma, personaje eclectico y culto, curioso de viajes en el sentido más amplio de la palabra. La segunda parte comprende las conversaciones entre un músico y artista visual Angelo Sturiale y el famoso escritor mexicano Felipe Montes. Estas conversaciones, realizadas en Monterrey en español, han sido grabadas, traducidas y arregladas por Ornella Rota. Como conclusión ideal de estas reflexiones, el último capítulo, "Descubrimientos", propone un dialogo entre Vincenzo Parla y Angelo Sturiale. Por lo tanto, este libro constituye el resultado de escritura de un lato al otro del Oceano, reuniendo cuatro personajes en apariencia tantos distintos entre si, pero en realidad acomunados por el auspicio de un mundo en el cual pueden coexistir, respetandose entre si e interagir tantas y distintas culturas, enfoques, estilos de vida "quizás profundamente diversas pero todos en lo absoluto dignos de igual consideración, siempre que sean dispuestos a respetar irrenunciablemente los derechos humanos", comenta Vincenzo Parma. Angelo Sturiale espera en la conquista del pluralismo incluso en las esferas más privadas, por ejemplo en la idea de familia "que sigue siendo la realidad más importante de la vida y que pero cada uno tiene el derecho de vivirla según sus propios modelos, siempre que no haya violencia, por ningún tipo y motivo". A parte con sus palabras, Angelo Sturiale está presente en el libro con sus dibujos: esenciales, enigmaticos, cosmopolitas, inconfundibles.
